Thank you for your interest in supporting Wartburg to Give Wings to Innovation! 

Wartburg is committed to caring for our community. Many of our nursing home residents live at or below the poverty level. The cost of care has increased, requiring Wartburg to rely on your generosity to fulfill the need. This holiday season I invite you to help us with our most urgent aspiration: to fund the latest technology and provide innovative care. Your benevolence ensures we have the equipment, training and staff to ensure our seniors live with the dignity and independence they so richly deserve.

For other giving options, please contact our office via telephone at 718-513-5308 or email us at giving@nullwartburg.org
