Today Good Shepherd Manor provides caring support for men with developmental disabilities --- residential living, companion-ship, education, work opportunities and final care. These men are your neighbors, your sons, and your brothers.

Good Shepherd Manor will advance this caring program into the future, beyond the lifetimes of the Manor’s current supporters. You can assure perpetual support by participating with your friends in the Shepherds Endowment Society.

Mission

To serve the needs of developmentally disabled men and their families by assuring the long-term financial stability of Good Shepherd Manor.

Vision

Good Shepherd Manor will have a protected source of perpetual support for its residents to assure necessary programs and resources, quality of life, and dignified care during their lives and for future generations.

What You Should Know....

You can easily choose a method of participation that helps the mission and meets your own needs. We have two straight-forward programs to do that, lifetime gifts and deferred gifts.

Lifetime Gifts

These are outright donations of assets such as cash, securities, real estate, insurance or retirement benefits.

Deferred Gifts

These gifts are generally conveyed upon the benefactor’s death by bequest. They can also include 401K, 403B, IRA’s or other qualified plans by designating the Shepherds Endowment Society as beneficiary. The latter are especially easy to execute and may have tax advantages.

Membership...

The Shepherds Endowment Society encourages and invites you to consider a gift at one of five membership levels. Each level of membership corresponds to the titles of those who attended and watched over the Christ Child at Bethlehem.
