Create a lasting impact by donating to our Salem & Roanoke communities.
As a not-for-profit community in Salem, and now in Roanoke City, Richfield Living must balance the need to keep fees affordable with the need to perpetuate high standards. Conservative and diligent financial management has allowed us to reach goals, but growth that fits within our greater service objectives must come from other sources. Through your contributions to Richfield Living we can continue to enhance our services, facilities, and amenities.
The financial assets of Richfield provide funds for new programs, services and facilities; renovations of current buildings; employee scholarships and assistance when residents outlive their financial resources. You can help residents in many ways.
Exciting changes are happening at Richfield… changes that will enhance quality of life for the residents for decades to come.
With continued support and the competitive performance of Richfield’s endowment, we are able to make funds available that provide new opportunities for the residents by developing programs and facilities which enhance their care and quality of life. Contributions from individuals, corporations, and organizations are managed according to policies developed by Richfield’s Board of Directors. Funds are managed transparently, ensuring that each gift is used according to the donor’s intent.

If you wish, you can allocate your gift for a specific area of need:
Assisted Living Legacy Fund
As people live longer and care needs change, residents on fixed incomes can find it hard to make ends meet in the face of investment underperformance, health challenges, or simply by outliving their savings. Some residents worry they will no longer be able to afford to live at Richfield.
The goal of the Richfield Assisted Living Legacy Fund is to provide financial assistance to those living in assisted living who lack options to further meet their cost of care. Funds are perpetually needed to support this program and the need continues to rise. Each year Richfield Living subsidizes, on average, over $273,000 in unreimbursed costs for benevolent care.
Chaplaincy Fund
A donation to Chaplaincy Services through the Chaplaincy Fund can provide additional programming, devotional materials, and direct assistance to the support of outreach to the Richfield Living community through The Chapel. Many choose to tithe or support this service through volunteering. Spiritual wellness is important on many levels and your donations to this fund is appreciated.
Scholarship Fund for Team Education
Richfield is committed to residents and learning. One of our strategic initiatives is to fully engage, develop, and empower a diverse, well-educated team of professionals who embrace our mission, values, and continuous learning. The Scholarship Fund makes it possible for employees to get advanced training and education to keep up with the changes in health care and best practices. In return, they apply their skills to enhance the lives of the residents.
Building Facilities and Resources For Residents
Contributions made to Richfield Living will assist us with these goals:
Expand Town Center amenities that will offer expanded wellness offerings, educational, and life enrichment opportunities for residents
Provide funds to assist with amenities at the new nursing center and support the household model of care
Provide funds for renovations and upgrades to our current facilities
Provide funds for supporting the Outpatient and Wellness Gym – individual wellness programs, exercise classes, aquatic programs and equipment needs
