COMMUNITY Updates

August 5, 2025

Dear Friends and Family of Light of Hearts Villa,

We hope this note finds you enjoying a restful and joy-filled summer! At Light of Hearts Villa, this season is always one of connection, gratitude, and celebration…and we’re making the most of it.

We’re especially excited for one of our favorite traditions happening this week: our Annual Staff & Resident Patio Picnic on Wednesday, August 6! This cheerful afternoon of food, laughter, and togetherness is a beloved way we celebrate the incredible people who make our community so special.

Looking ahead, we’re thrilled to host:

Hearts & Homes: An Evening at the Villa
Tuesday, September 9 | 5:30 – 7:30 PM

A summer evening of food, fellowship, and firsthand stories. Tour the Villa, meet our residents and team members, and experience the heart of our mission. This event is perfect for prospective residents and their families, volunteers, and donors. Please RSVP if you plan to attend—we’d love to welcome you!

We also extend our sincere thanks to Home Instead for generously sponsoring this upcoming Open House. Their support allows us to warmly welcome new friends without stretching our resources – and we’re so grateful!

A few more exciting updates to keep in mind:

Donor Engagement Session – Tuesday, October 7 | 6:00-7:30 PM
Invitations will be going out soon! These sessions are a wonderful way to connect more deeply with our mission and the impact of your support.

Trick-or-Treat at the Villa – Tuesday, October 28 | 4:00 – 5:30 PM
Bring the kiddos, grab some costumes, and join us for a heartwarming Halloween tradition. Our residents love passing out candy and welcoming joyful little visitors from the community!

Finally, we’re beginning to gear up for our #weGiveCatholic campaign this fall. This annual fundraising effort is vital to our Sister Helen T. Scasny, SC Benevolent Fund, which ensures our residents continue to receive premier care even if they outlive their financial resources. We’ll be sharing more soon on how you can get involved and make a difference. With a $100,000 matching gift from the Kaminski family, we are eager to make this the most successful year yet, with your help!

Thank you for being such an important part of our Light of Hearts Villa family. Your care, presence, and support fuel everything we do.

With thanks and love,

Breanne Cavileer, LNHA, CDP
Executive Director
