Proceeds Directly Support Our Seniors!

The Box Office Benefit is an opportunity to show our Seniors that the Wesley Willows, Peterson Meadows, Highview in the Woodlands, and Rockford communities support them for a lifetime of care. All proceeds from the event go to the Wesley Willows Good Samaritan Fund and Peterson Meadows Endowment Fund. These funds allow us to give residents a lifetime of care at our senior living communities even if they outlive their financial resources.
We welcome and encourage donations to support this worthy cause!
