Annual Support

Bayley welcomes gifts of all sizes to support the Bayley Annual Fund.  Gifts to this program help meet the increasing and changing needs of residents of Bayley and members of the Bayley Adult Day Program. Donations designated for the general fund are unrestricted. The Board of Directors is free to allocate these donations to be used where the need is greatest.

Tribute and Memorial Gift Program

Gifts to this program enable you to honor or memorialize family and friends throughout the year.  A personal acknowledgement letter is sent to the family or individual being honored, without reference to the size of the gift. 

Pastoral Care Chapel Fund

This fund provides support for operational expenses for the Pastoral Care Department.  Stipends for clergy, musicians, wine, hosts, seasonal flowers, misalettes, and upkeep for audio visual services and miscellaneous materials are needed to provide for the many spiritual programs and services to enhance this ministry and mission at Bayley. 

Mother Margaret George Honor and Memorial Society 

The Society offers a unique way to honor living loved ones or deceased individuals who resided at Bayley, were members of Bayley Adult Day Program or whose lives had been touched by the caring outreach of Bayley.

An annual fall Mass is celebrated for all Society members at the Motherhouse Immaculate Conception Chapel with a donor appreciation reception is held immediately following.  Society memberships are available for a minimum contribution of $5,000. Donations may be made as gifts of cash, stock, life insurance and or investment assets

Bayley Endowment Fund

This fund helps residents of Bayley and members of Bayley Adult Day program who outlive their resources.  Over 50% of Bayley residents and 73% of our adult day members receive assistance. The combined shortfall between the annual expenses of these two programs and government funding is $1.2. million.  It has always been a hallmark of Bayley that no resident is ever asked to leave due to inability to pay.  Residents who outlive their resources  continue to receive our love and support.  Our Bayley Adult Day members continue to enjoy our services, live in the community and remain independent because of our commitment to them and their families.

Pastoral Care Endowment Fund…A special endowed fund within the Bayley Endowment

To help ensure current and future generations of Bayley residents and their families benefit from the myriad of services by Pastoral Care Chaplains, the Bayley Endowment Cabinet has created the Pastoral Care Endowment Fund within the Bayley Endowment.  Endowing a position, the department, or gifts in honor or memory of a beloved family member, respected teacher, caregiver, religious, or other special person may be made to the Pastoral Care Endowment Fund by cash or by bequest.  This endowed fund complements the Pastoral Care Chapel Fund.  (link to above information on this fund).
