Ginny Gives Grants
Ginny Gives™, named in honor of Ginny J., a vivacious woman known for her warm ways and never-ending smile, is a set of life-enrichment programs and initiatives of the Dementia Society of America (DSA).
Ginny's journey through her own Dementia, while maintaining an effervescent smile, always inspired her family, caregivers, friends, and even passersby... and the inspiration for the Dementia Society of America itself. See the video here...
The objective of the grant program is to enhance the quality of life for those living with Dementia, their caregivers, and the public at large by underwriting events and activities in nursing homes, continuing residential care communities, and elsewhere in the Dementia community, primarily in the following general categories: Music, Art, Dance/Movement, and Touch/Sensory Stimulation.
We underwrite these activities solely through the generosity of individual donors and corporate sponsors.
