In the book of Leviticus 19:32 we are commanded to “rise before the aged.” That does not only mean to show our respect by physically getting up, but to rise to the occasion of helping to care for the most senior elders in our midst. Jews do that. Through an allocation to Homecrest House you assist the elderly of limited means. You help ensure that critically important medicine monitoring occurs and that programs to lift the spirits and the dignity of the aged take place. You provide for their proper care. Nu, how can we do otherwise?

Homecrest House is comprised of three separate facilities on ten acres of grounds in Montgomery County, Maryland. The level of services increases from facility to facility, as the changing needs of residents dictate.
