Page 4 - Jewish Home Annual Report 2012-2013

A LETTER FROM THE CHAIR

Supporting the Jewish Home is an investment in multiple
generations. We serve todays seniors in need and simultaneously
build our capacity to meet future demand. By bridging multiple
perspectives, an annual report is perfectly suited to addressing
these dual priorities: taking a look back at yesterdays progress
and putting it in the context of tomorrows growth.

This report comes at an auspicious time on both fronts. Keeping
the Vision Expand, Extend, Sustain our $215 million campaign
to build facilities and expand and support programs has met
with great success, already generating more than $118 million
in funding commitments. Over the past year, fueled in part by
the robust generosity of families across our community, we
continued to make progress on the development of the Gonda
Healthy Aging Westside Campus in Playa Vista, and our goal of
serving 5,000 seniors by 2015 is within reach. We also established a frm footing for the Brandman
Centers for Senior Care, the Homes frst Program of All-inclusive Care for the Elderly (PACE),
on the Grancell Village Campus, and we launched a wide range of other comprehensive senior
healthcare services, all while maintaining a high level of quality care.

Looking ahead, the Jewish Home is poised for even greater accomplishment. Whether it is supporting
the construction of new buildings and the remodeling of current facilities at our Grancell and
Eisenberg Villages; developing the Hirsch Family Campus in the San Fernando Valley; expanding
our renowned Annenberg School of Nursing; supporting the Homes operations; or contributing
signifcant capital to our endowment, the coming year is sure to be an exciting and fulflling one.
I look forward to sharing it with you, and I thank you for the extraordinary partnership that
makes it possible.

Jeffrey Glassman
Chair, Board of Directors
