Leading Forward: A New Chapter Begins
Sometimes, moving forward starts with saying goodbye As we blessed the Partners building and The Ebby House one final time, we honored the deep history held within their walls and celebrated the promise of what’s to come.
In 2024, your generosity set transformation in motion. Renovations began on the Carroll Neighborhood, a new memory support space designed to offer dignity and purpose to older adults living with dementia Construction also started on expanded independent living options, including a vibrant clubhouse and woodworking shop that will bring creativity and connection to life for our residents.
We also formed a life-changing partnership with Bezos Academy, which will soon bring tuition-free Montessori preschool to our East Dallas campus extending belonging and opportunity to even more families
And so, a new chapter begins Because of you, Fowler is expanding These new spaces will nurture community and care across all generations
Thank you for making this future possible. You are building more than buildings; you are building belonging.
