St. Elizabeth Ann Seton was an American born saint. She was a wife, mother, educator, widow, nurse and foundress of the Sisters of Charity. During her life, she often had to depend on others to help her provide for her family and her fledgling community.
Today, senior citizens are often in need of a helping hand at a moment of shortfall. At times, the fixed income doesn’t quite meet the needs and the cupboard stands bare.
In 2005, the community outreach services of Light of Hearts Villa established the Seton Safety Net for seniors, a small food closet, to give our social worker the resources to meet such needs as they arise in our community.
Donations can be made by cash or by check to: Light of Hearts Villa, with “Seton Safety Net” on the memo line.
Address: 283 Union St. Bedford, OH 44146
Food donations can also be delivered to Light of Hearts Villa.
Accepting: Canned fruits, canned vegetables, cereals, canned soups, juices (no glass), macaroni and cheese, noodles, rice, peanut butter and jelly

Light of Hearts Villa, a senior living community in Bedford, Ohio, received zero deficiencies during their annual state survey this past month. An accomplishment that is not easily attainable in the highly regulated world of assisted living. But what exactly does having “zero deficiencies” mean?
Our annual Light the Way Gala celebrated an incredible evening of generosity and support, raising over $120,000 for the Sister Helen T. Scasny, SC Benevolent Fund. This sold-out event on September 29, attended by over 250 people, illuminated the unwavering commitment of the community to the mission of Light of Hearts Villa.
Music often evokes memories and can bring up senses and emotions from past encounters with a song, artist or instrument. So, it’s no surprise that music can be a helpful tool for residents in memory care.
