A long legacy of giving
Built on a legacy of compassion, Vivie was founded on a shared dedication to community care. The pioneers behind Walker Methodist and Knute Nelson, the legacy organizations that built Vivie, took bold action to address community needs and ensure the well-being of their neighbors. Thanks to our predecessors, philanthropy is truly at the heart of all we do at Vivie. Today, we honor that vision, continually expanding our impact through the Foundation’s programs and initiatives.
“I was inspired to become a sustaining donor to The Foundation because it’s easy and, no matter the amount, I know my monthly gift makes a significant impact over time. I love being reminded with each month’s bank statement that my contribution is helping enhance the lives of all we serve across the spectrum of care at Vivie.”
- Terri Bursch, Foundation Board Member
“Vivie is an amazing organization. Management and staff live and breathe their motto of enriching the lives of the people they serve. They nurture a wonderful work culture that overflows onto their residents and clients to provide quality care and services. My father spent his last few weeks of life in the comfort of their compassionate and professional care. These experiences have left a lasting impression on me and have inspired me to continue to support the Foundation with service and as a monthly donor.”
- Rich Moen, DDS, Foundation Board Chair
“Becky and I were inspired to make a gift of appreciated stock to the Foundation not only because the Foundation provides wonderful services to residents but also because it was so easy. I had some stock from a bonus program at my previous employer which had appreciated over the years and would have been taxed had I sold it. Instead, I passed it easily to the Foundation. No tax and a tax deduction on my tax return. It was a win, win. On top of this it helped the Foundation. So a win, win, win.”
- Chris and Becky Worley
