Support continues for the Aging Well Senior Living at the Spring Valley Campus’s capital campaign. Recently, Kansas Gas Service through the ONE Gas Foundation awarded a $21,300 grant towards the Aging Well project.

Kara Titus, Kansas Gas Service Area Manager of Community Relations, helped facilitate the Foundation grant award. “We are proud to support Aging Well and the innovative and intentional services their campus will provide to Junction City seniors,” said Titus. 

Like Kansas Gas Service, Aging Well has a mission to provide more than just minimum required services. Aging Well will build a senior campus with the small home design that creates an environment that is intentional rather than institutional. Elders’ lives will be purposeful rather than passive, and staff will focus on person rather than process. Skilled nursing and Assisted Living services will be provided. 

The donation from Kansas Gas Service helps Aging Well move forward towards reaching their $3.5 million fundraising goal.

LaDonna Junghans, Co-Chair of the Aging Well board, shared, “It is terrific to see organizations like The ONE Gas Foundation support the communities they serve. We are so grateful they chose to recognize Aging Well with their support.”
