In 2021, at a time of great turmoil in our world and at a time when the nursing home industry especially was struggling with the challenges of COVID-19, A.G. Rhodes launched its Legacy of Care campaign. This landmark capital effort on our A.G. Rhodes Cobb campus involved planning for a new kind of nursing home community that can be replicated throughout Atlanta and across the nation. We envisioned a community that could better protect its residents from infectious disease; a community that could empower those living with dementia to lead lives of independence and fulfillment; and above all, a community that could keep the human spirit at the heart of everything it does.

Thanks to a vast network of strong community supporters, we met our campaign goals which will significantly change the lives of some of the most vulnerable people in our community. The new community opened in June 2024.

This $37.5 million project was funded through a combination of public and private sources paired with internal financing. We raised more than $7.5 million, or 108% of our $7 million philanthropic goal, including $1.8 million from our Boards of Trustees and Advisors as well as our Honorary Advisors.
