Your gift to 2Life changes the aging paradigm
When you make a gift to support the mission of 2Life Communities, you join a movement that is changing the experience of aging for seniors in Massachusetts. You're sending a message that the oldest members of our community matter and that you value their wisdom, their experience, and what they have to share. And, you are helping to create vibrant, supportive communities where older adults can thrive.
Whether you choose to support our programs and services, would like to make a tribute gift in memory or in honor of a loved one, or would like to create a lasting legacy, your generosity furthers our mission to provide older adults with communities filled with connection, purpose, and joy. Thank you for supporting the generations who have given us so much.
Honor and memory gifts
Making a tribute gift in honor or in memory of someone special is a wonderful way to express how much you care while supporting 2Life. Your generosity creates dynamic communities where life is enriched with programs and services that empower older adults to live engaged, connected lives of purpose and joy.
Tribute gifts are wonderful options for birthday or holiday gifts, for bar and bat mitzvahs, weddings, anniversaries, and other special occasions. Memorial gifts are given to remember a loved one in lieu of sending flowers.
When making a tribute gift, please include the following information:
- Your name, address and phone number
- Name of person and whether the gift is “in honor of” or “in memory of”
- Name and address of person to be notified of your gift
