NEW HOLLAND, Pa. – The Board of Directors for Garden Spot Communities and Frederick Living announce the affiliation of the two organizations has been finalized. Garden Spot Communities and Frederick Living share a similar mission and values as faith-based, nonprofit continuing care retirement communities.
Garden Spot Communities CEO Steve Lindsey said, “We are excited to announce that all the approvals required for two nonprofit organizations to affiliate have been received. We formally welcome Frederick Living into the Garden Spot Communities family.”
Garden Spot Communities’ collective footprint includes Garden Spot Village and Maple Farm in Lancaster County and Frederick Living in Montgomery County.
Lindsey highlighted the driving force behind the affiliation: “We started this journey because both Frederick Living and Garden Spot Communities recognized that the world is changing faster today than ever before. Both organizations believed that the era of the single site and small system organization is ending. As we each looked for partners to leverage our experience and achieve a point of critical mass, we believed our mission-driven, faith-based organizations were a strong match. Our experience through the affiliation process has proven that belief to be true.”
