To Make A Donation/Memorial Gift

Literally, without your donations, St. John's Villa would not be present today!  We are dependent on your generosity to be an organization serving all the persons we have served in the past and continue to serve today.  St. John's Villa is committed to living out the healing ministry of Jesus by providing exceptional and compassionate service that promotes dignity and well-being for the people we serve, particularly those who are developmentally disabled.

Your prayer, support, and encouragement over the more than 50 years this facility has existed is a tribute to your understanding of the gift of life and the need to support those who are less fortunate.  We have truly been blessed by your loving care and support for many years, and, at the same time, we pray you, our benefactors, are blessed for your unbelievable generosity.

Especially since January of 1991, when so very many of our friends stepped up to the plate to “build a new facility” to meet the needs of a population that deserved dignity of life and, at the same time, additional supports in their aging process.

Although St. John’s Villa receives federal, state, and local funding, the quality of the programs provided would never be an option without your everyday help and support.  When the staff agrees on a specific needs for the people we serve, we feel obligated to somehow make it happen! 

Each of the people we serve has a plan that fits his/her needs for physical, psychological, social, religious, educational, or vocational and recreational needs.  The goal for each is to help him/her achieve and maintain their highest level of independence possible.  Clearly, the mission of all staff working with our people is to provide the residents with lives of dignity, beauty, challenge, and respect.

Individuals who are mentally challenged are unable to create a good world for themselves but with an appropriate environment they not only are gifted but also share the gift with others.  The lives you, our friends, help to provide for them are a tribute of thanks for all who share in our ministry.  A donation, in whatever amount you can comfortably give, is most gratefully received.

For more information please contact Dave Lyon or Susan Williamson at 330.627.9789.

Donations are most gratefully received and are used to help support the programs that enrich the lives of the 55 adults who call St. John’s Villa “Home”.  Through your support you share
in our mission of care.
