Donors Support Unique Program

Visiting Frank Lloyd Wright’s Fallingwater was a lifelong dream for Sue Murray. Jubilee’s vacation program turned Sue’s dream into reality.

“It was just so simple and yet so magnificent! Jubilee helped me finally get here,” she said.

Robust year-round programming helps combat loneliness and makes friendships bloom through shared activity. Jubilee vacations are the highlight. For some people Jubilee supports, these trips are their only vacation all year.

Donor support makes these trips possible, and our frontline workforce makes dreams come true on these trips. Nearly half of the people Jubilee supports joined one of our vacations this year.

“Our community members help choose the vacation locations, and each person can

plan what they want to do,” said Julia McCune, Jubilee’s Director of Community Engagement.

This year, Jubilee hosted vacations to three locations to meet demand and provide variety. A trip to perennial favorite Ocean City, Md., one to Williamsburg, Va., and our first trip to Pittsburgh.

“Thank you to everyone who had a hand in creating these unforgettable experiences,” Julia said. “They would not be possible without the incredible support of Jubilee’s donors.”
