Episcopal Retirement Services (ERS) is a 501(c)3 not-for-profit organization.

All gifts are tax-deductible to the extent provided by law. The ERS Foundation EIN is 31-1570272

Each year we raise funds for our Good Samaritan Mission Fund, which provides:

• Resident Financial Aid
• Affordable Living 
• Deupree Meals On Wheels
• Parish Health Ministry
• Partners In Care Fund
• Spiritual services
• Wellness programs
• Staff financial aid

Last year alone, ERS contributed more than $1.9 million to cover expenses above and beyond our resident fees. We raise those funds through donations, grants, and events to help us keep our longstanding promise that no resident be asked to leave the Marjorie P. Lee or Deupree House communities due to a lack of funds.

Please consider giving to the Good Samaritan Mission Fund.

In 2017, the Jacob G. Schmidlapp Trusts, Fifth Third Bank, Trustee awarded ERS $100,000 to fund common space furnishings in 3 Affordable Living communities. The funding was on the condition that ERS would secure an additional $50,000 … at the Samaritan Awards Celebration, donors rose to the challenge! Watch this video to see the impact that donors had on the lives of the residents living in these communities.
