This Report refl ects on the progress Givens has made as it works to accomplish its mission of providing quality care to its residents and outreach to the greater community.

In their most recent satisfaction surveys, more than 94% of Givens Estates and Givens Highland Farms residents who responded said that overall satisfaction with their community was met or exceeded. What a testament to the staff who pour their lives into their work!

We continue to off er a variety of subsidized, aff ordable, and market rate housing options to Western North Carolina. Givens Estates, Givens Gerber Park, and Givens Highland Farms are all undergoing major construction projects, which will enhance our off erings to prospective residents and provide much needed aff ordable housing for an underserved senior population.

Due to the strong foundation that our “Builders of the Dream” established, the continued hard work of staff , and the vision our residents share with us, the Givens name has developed a reputation for quality care, excellent service, and outstanding outreach.

Our Board and Staff are grateful for the opportunity to belong to and serve the Givens community.

Remembering Our “Builders of the Dream”In 2003, the Givens Board of Directors unanimously voted to

recognize 22 individuals whose faithful dedication and uncommon commitment were vital to Givens’ existence. The Givens Family

lost three of these visionaries over the past several years.

In Memoriam – James T. Trollinger, Kenneth A. Partin, and Charles E. Nesbi�

James T. Trollinger, a United Methodist pastor from the Western North Carolina Conference, was Givens Estates’ third executive director during our critical formative years from 1981 until 1991.

Kenneth A. Partin, a successful land and housing developer in Asheville, was a member of the Board during our early years and played an important role in guiding the initial development of our community.

Charles E. Nesbi� , a banking and wealth management specialist, helped connect the Givens Trustees, Tom Camp and Earl Hadlow, with United Methodists who were striving to create a retirement community in Western North Carolina.

Creekside Homes Prepares to Enter Third Phase of Construction In July 2013, Phase 1 of Creekside Homes began, with new residents moving in a little more than a year later. These independent living residences combine the amenities of apartment living with the comfort of a single family cottage. They offer large floor plans of 1,400 to 1,700 square feet, energy efficiency, underbuilding parking, and are adaptable to the needs of residents. The project designed by RLPS Architects received a Citation Award, a top award category in the Design for Aging Review co-sponsored by the American Institute of Architects and LeadingAge.

The three phases of Creekside Homes total 72 apartments, with each phase consisting of two buildings containing 12 apartments each. Phase 2 began in July 2014 with new residents moving into their new homes in November 2015. The final phase of Creekside Homes is scheduled to begin this fall, with move-ins planned for the first quarter of 2017.

Deconstruction of Villa Apartments Benefits Local Community The first and second phases of Creekside Homes replaced older Villa Apartments that had been built in the 1980s. Before the Villa Apartments were deconstructed, Givens Estates donated appliances, cabinets, and

fixtures to Habitat for Humanity.

The Asheville Fire Department then utilized the buildings for training purposes. A total of 119 firefighters and officers trained for a week on the Givens Estates campus, covering topics such as residential fire operations, forcible entry, and search and rescue operations. Shane Mackey, Safety and Training Officer, estimated that this exercise saved their department approximately $76,750 in training costs.

Construction Begins on Meadowmont Homes Givens Highland Farms is adding a group of homes called Meadowmont to its inventory of independent living residences. The first phase of construction will offer 18 new residences consisting of one- and two-bedroom duplexes and fourplexes. Ground was broken this fall, and the project is expected to be completed in late 2016.

The homes will be located on 18 acres of land adjacent to the current Givens Highland Farms campus. Floor plans range from 1,132 to 1,550 square feet and feature one level living, large windows, cathedral ceilings, patios, and front porches. Up to four phases are being considered for the scope of this project, with as many as 72 new homes being built depending on demand.

Givens Highland Farms currently has 214 independent living residences. Meadowmont is the first new construction on the campus since 2000 and is a result of a master plan developed after Givens’ acquisition of the community in 2012. Funds generated from the addition of all phases of Meadowmont to the campus will allow Givens Highland Farms to build new skilled nursing and assisted living options.

Community Support and Partnerships - Givens Gerber Park Phase 1

Community support enriches the lives of lower-income seniors. These gift s are a tremendous vote of confi dence and encouragement as Givens provides more quality aff ordable housing to a rapidly growing senior population. Givens was awarded the following:

• Asheville Regional Housing HOME Funds: $100,000 • City of Asheville Housing and Trust Fund: $500,000 • Charitable Gift s from friends and residents: $650,000 • The Duke Endowment: $700,000 • State and Federal Tax Credit Financing: approximately $9 million

First phase of Givens Gerber Park to open in fall 2016Construction is underway on Phase 1 of Givens Gerber Park, a community which will help meet the growing demand for aff ordable senior housing. Phase 1 will off er 120 one- and two-bedroom apartments to seniors with incomes at or below $23,520 for one person and $26,880 for two persons. Phases 2 and 3 of Givens Gerber Park will off er an additional 142 aff ordable apartments in 2017.

Givens Gerber Park is a dream born out of Givens’ commitment to serve seniors of all income levels. This project will pair housing and supportive services to create a vibrant community where seniors with low and modest incomes can thrive. Through partnerships, Givens Gerber Park will provide a MAHEC clinic, a café, food pantry, service coordinators, a community nurse, fi tness center, media center, and planned activities.

Givens Gerber Park is located in South Asheville with access to public transportation and shopping. The project will also include a library, a large community room, raised garden beds, and tenant storage areas. Givens Gerber Park will be a sustainable model to address a multitude of needs associated with the expanding senior population.

Givens Great Laurels partners with MANNA FoodBank For seniors living on a fixed income, an increase in food costs can prevent them from getting the basic nutrition they need. The Homeowners Association at Lake Junaluska helped stock an emergency food pantry for Givens Great Laurels residents with soups, canned goods, peanut butter, toothpaste, and paper products. But there was still a need for fresh produce and other staples.

In 2014, Givens began partnering with MANNA FoodBank to bring weekly food distributions to Givens Great Laurels. These food distributions provide much needed fresh fruit and vegetables, meats, and staple items and have fostered a greater sense of community among the residents.

Now they can supplement their meals with chicken, apples, sweet potatoes, squash, tomatoes, bread, yogurt, vitamins, Ensure®, Glucerna®, and more. From January to October 2015, more than 32,000 pounds of food have been provided to 70 percent of Givens Great Laurels residents.

The impact was immediate. “I can eat meat again!” said one resident. “What I got today would have cost me $40 in the store,” said another. Some residents take larger portions and make extra meals to share with neighbors who are homebound or under the weather. “This program has brought our community together,” says Service Coordinator Jenn Walt. “We are all so grateful!”

Gifts to the Resident Assistance Ministry were used to fund this partnership with MANNA. Programs like these allow Givens to support its residents and help them remain independent.

Resident Irv Katz helps organize the food distribution each week.

Two New B.E.A.R. Closets Open For Low-income Families

This summer, Givens LifeMinistries worked alongside East Asheville United Methodist Church

and Fairview-Sharon United Methodist Church to add two new Baby Equipment and Resource (B.E.A.R) Closets. B.E.A.R. Closets provide free gently used clothing (sizes infant to 4 toddler), shoes, and baby equipment to expecting moms and parents.

According to the 2012 NC Justice Center statistics, 26% of Buncombe County children live in poverty, and 36% live in single parent households. The poverty rate has increased 85% since 2001. Givens LifeMinistries has guided and supported the development of fi ve B.E.A.R. Closets spanning three counties in Western North Carolina. These locations serve approximately 1,400 children and 800 families annually.

The East Asheville B.E.A.R. Closet is open the second and fourth Mondays of every month from 4:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. and is located across from the V.A. Medical Center. The Fairview B.E.A.R. Closet is open the fi rst and third Mondays of every month from 3:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. and is located across from Fairview Elementary School.

For more information about the all the B.E.A.R. Closet locations and their hours, visit their website at www.bearcloset.org.

Golden Wheels Bus Given in Memory of Joanna BeverlyJoanna Beverly loved taking scenic trips with her friends who lived with her in Wood Assisted Living, yet they were riding on a bus that was not ideal for residents with mobility challenges. In 2013, Joanna’s children, Mary Jo Limbird and Jerry Beverly, took their mother’s love for these trips to heart and made a special gift to support the purchase of a bus with large windows that is wheelchair accessible through the main entry doors.

Jerry noted, “Nothing would make our mother happier than to give back some of the joy she received from the staff and residents in Wood Assisted Living during her fi nal years of life. The ‘Scenic Tour’ drives were certainly a big contributor to that joy, and knowing that more of the residents can share in such events gives us a wonderful satisfaction.” This generous gift honors Joanna Beverly’s life and enhances opportunities for all residents to enjoy off campus outings, fall colors, Christmas light tours, and much more.

Putt ing Green with Chipping Mats at Givens EstatesA PGA-quality, synthetic turf putt ing green was made possible through special gift s by residents and friends. The green is located on the Givens Estates campus just above the arboretum off Barrett Lane. The putt ing shelter and golf club storage cabinets were designed by retired architect and resident Pierce Stephens. The shelter was constructed by residents Carlos Kennedy and Bill Crum. Waterproof bench

cushions were handmade by resident Mimi Rousse.

Horace E. Bell Memorial Garden and Columbarium DedicatedFor more than a decade, residents asked if Givens Estates would consider placing a memorial garden and columbarium

on its campus. Aft er fi ve years of careful study and planning, it was determined that the addition was feasible but would require a major philanthropic gift to make this dream a reality.

Givens Estates Residents Hubert and Joan Williams enthusiastically stepped forward with a heartwarming and

generous gift in recognition of Joan’s father, Horace Bell. Mr. Bell was a warm, caring man who loved life, his children, his family, and his friends. He was a great humanitarian as a fundraiser for youth and health organizations and a mentor and leader in his church and community. On November 14, 2013, the Memorial Garden and Columbarium was dedicated, honoring his memory.

The Horace E. Bell Memorial Garden is a sunken garden with walls constructed of native Tennessee stone and fl ora. A quiet creek runs adjacent to the patio adding to its meditative atmosphere and beauty. The native-stone-constructed walls can hold more than 500 niches, and the extension wall is shaped like a nautilus shell. Areas of the garden will also be used for sprinkling of ashes. Persons interred elsewhere can be remembered in the garden on the “In Memoriam” wall. The memorial garden is located adjacent to the Norma F. Pulliam Chapel. For more information, contact Director of Ministries Ed Hillman at (828) 771-2237 or [email protected].
