Annual Appeal
Annual Appeal is the cornerstone of giving to Poydras Home. It includes unrestricted giving from
all sources and supports Poydras Home’s operations, programs
and activities. Poydras Home’s excellent staff ratios,
quality caregivers, improvements to the home, and support
for Alzheimer’s and dementia programs are all funded in part
by the Annual Appeal. |

Endowment
The Poydras Home Endowment Fund
ensures Poydras’ future as a continuing care retirement
community and assures the perpetuation of its mission of
quality, compassionate care for future generations. Income
generated from the Endowment Fund supports general
operations, property and capital improvements,
and resident subsidies.
Annual Art Show & Patron Party
Support for Poydras Home’s annual
fundraiser as a sponsor, donor, contributor, patron, artist,
or volunteer assists Poydras in raising funds for a specific
need. Participating artists donate a percentage of their
sale proceeds to Poydras. In 2007, the Art Show & Patron
Party proceeds obtained a new 18 passenger bus for
residents. In 2008, funds raised were dedicated to
purchasing new therapeutic hydra-spas for residents.

Poydras Home in memory of or in honor of someone directly
supports the operations of Poydras. |

gifts offer a special way to remember those you love, or to

Pastoral Care
Poydras Home nurtures the spiritual, as well as the physical
requirements of our community. Poydras retains a full-time
chaplain who ministers daily to the emotional and spiritual
needs of residents, families, and staff. Donations to
Pastoral Care support the Chaplaincy Program providing two
non-denominational religious services weekly and year-round
support for 10 visiting ministers from five religious
denominations.
