You make
it possible!

Every class. Every connection. Every day.
Your generosity helps our community live better, for longer.

Everyone deserves connection, support, and belonging.

Life after 55 should be filled with strength, connection, and purpose.

But without access to wellness programs, community, and trusted guidance, many people find this season of life harder to navigate than it should be.

You make it possible…

At Evergreen Commons, we’ve spent more than four decades helping individuals and families navigate aging with confidence.

Together, we’ve built a community rooted in connection, care, and purpose, where people live better, for longer.

Yet here’s something many people don’t realize, general membership dues cover just 1.7% of what it takes to operate Evergreen Commons each year. The rest depends on generous supporters who believe our community deserves a better way to experience life after 55.

  • “My husband, Steve, is really enjoying his two mornings/week at Evergreen Commons. The staff help him feel like he is needed and helpful which makes him feel "special" and useful. The staffs' kindness and "appreciation" speaks to him and he often says when I pick him up, "I am so glad I came today...I really had a good time!" Thanks so much, EC staff, for all you do to help him feel "special " in this phase of his dementia...”

  • “When I moved to Holland five years ago, I heard about a vibrant senior community center but was slow to join. After a year of reading FreshAire, I finally started with the pool, improving my mobility and meeting great people. That led to trips, classes, dining, workouts, and even the travel committee. I’ve made lasting friendships and love being involved. Evergreen was doing exactly what I had hoped it would! If you’re hesitant, take the leap—Evergreen Commons will make your life better and more fulfilling.”

  • “I thank God for Evergreen Commons! When I first joined, I started with physical wellness classes for strength and movement. I noticed a difference in how good I felt. I haven’t had a cortisone shot in my knee for 3 years! Plus, the people at Evergreen are so kind. I live alone and Evergreen has given me new friendships and new connections. Volunteering at Evergreen during Tulip Time is the best…serving people in a fast-paced environment. I love it. Without Evergreen, I don’t know what I’d do.
