Roberta A. Healey, Simpson Senior Services Vice President
for Philanthropy, past PPh Development Director and founder of The Heritage
Society, was the keynote speaker. She
spoke about how valuable the philanthropy of the members of the Heritage
Society is to the future of PPh.
“The next generation of residents may never
know your name, but they will be grateful for your commitment to PPh,” she
said.
New members S. Elizabeth Bonsall, Mary Fields, William Krai,
J. Frederick and Gertrude Loeble, and Karl Loewe were inducted by Anthony
Manzo, President and CEO, and Barbara Beckman, Chairperson of the Board of
Directors. Each received a certificate,
a Heritage Society pin, and a copy of PPh
Memories. In addition, their names
will be added to the Heritage Society plaque in the esplanade and a brick
engraved with their name will be placed in “The Garden…”

The Heritage Society of The Philadelphia Protestant Home was
established in 1990 and the name reflects our appreciation and admiration for
those who had the vision to launch PPh.
Membership in the Society recognizes individuals who have made a
deferred gift, such as charitable gift annuity, a bequest through a will, an IRA,
life insurance or other gift which is made by a donor during his or her life
and received by the Home after the donor’s death.
