In honor of Bethesda’s 125th Anniversary, we invite you to be a part of our vision that will take us into the next century, fostering successful aging through compassion and innovation. To commemorate this auspicious anniversary, BHG Foundation has established The 125th Anniversary Club to help ensure that Bethesda will continue to provide quality and compassionate care – including independent living, assisted living, memory care, and skilled nursing – for generations to come.
Your support of The 125th Anniversary Club will benefit the John W. Rowe Humanitarian Care Fund, an endowment established to assist our seniors who have exhausted their resources and can no longer pay for Bethesda services.
Your gift can also benefit any number of Bethesda communities as well as our home and community-based services.

Why Support the 125th Anniversary Club:
- Your tax-deductible gifts help ensure that our seniors and future generations will always have a home with Bethesda.
- Support of the BHG Foundation helped subsidize more than $13.9 in humanitarian care (financial assistance) that Bethesda provided last year to residents who have exhausted their resources.
- Giving begins at home! Your gift directly benefits the community where you, a loved one or friend may live or receive services.
- With the future of Medicare and Medicaid funding in question, more and more financially strapped seniors will be counting on Bethesda to be there for them now and in the future.
Join the 125th Anniversary Club to ensure our seniors always have a place to call home at Bethesda.
