Donor Events

Mark your calendar. Make a difference.

Attend our special events and help raise crucially needed funds for the housing and care of senior residents, as well as the continual upkeep of our aging buildings.

Little Sisters’ departure from Richmond made Saint Francis the only remaining faith-based assisted living community in the area that is dedicated to exclusively serving older adults of limited means. Securing additional funds is more critical than ever before!

Besides, you’ll enjoy mingling and collaborating with others who share your charitable nature. So, take a look at what’s on tap.

Giving Day

Our 24-hour online day of giving repeats every year in early-October, in honor of the Feast of Saint Francis of Assisi. Mark your calendar and don’t miss this little-effort with big-impact campaign.

During our 2025 event, some 220 donors contributed more than $96,000 toward Saint Francis’ Annual Fund.

Together, let’s exceed that milestone!
