As a not-for-profit organization, we rely on the generosity of individuals, corporations and foundations to further enrich the lives of those entrusted in our care. Here are a variety of ways to show your support:

Brandon Oaks Resident Endowment Fund
Assures that qualified residents will receive continued support when their income and assets are no longer sufficient to pay their monthly service fees and other living expenses, through no fault of their own. This endowment is supported by gifts from residents, families, friends and churches.
Virginia Lutheran Homes Chaplaincy Endowment and Program Fund
This Endowment Fund will ensure that the chaplaincy services and benefits will continue for years to come for the residents of Brandon Oaks, Brandon Oaks Nursing and Rehabilitation Center and Luther Crest. The Chaplaincy Program is an essential part of our holistic approach to resident care and comfort. Through the program, we offer the services of two full-time chaplains to residents and their families. The Chaplaincy Program Fund will provide for programs, education, services and experiences for the residents of VLH communities statewide.
