A great day at GlenFlora with Lutheran Services Carolinas President Ted Goins as part of his annual Tour de LSC! 🎉 We celebrated Ed McNeill’s Loyal Service Award, welcomed new Administrator Donyetta McBride, and wished Austin Locklear well as he begins his next chapter after seven years of faithful service.

Each year, Ted visits LSC locations to share organizational updates and—most importantly—connect with teammates, residents, families, and community members. His full‑day visit included a 3rd‑shift breakfast, meetings with department heads, time with residents and teammates across shifts, a State of LSC all‑teammates meeting, and even joining in a resident activity.

What an incredible day!

On this Giving Tuesday, we’ve seen the extraordinary power of generosity—how, in just one day, so many come together to celebrate, encourage, and embody the spirit of giving.

Because of YOU:
✅ Families like Pualina’s, who lost everything in a disaster, found hope and a fresh start.
✅ Seniors like Garry and Carol experienced care, dignity, and community through every stage of life.
✅ Refugees are building confidence and independence.
✅ Residents at Aston Park received “over and beyond” care and love every single day.

These stories are just a glimpse of the lives that have been touched by your compassion. At Lutheran Services Carolinas (LSC), we walk alongside all those we serve—children in foster care, New Americans, seniors, and individuals with unique challenges—ensuring that no one journeys alone.

But our work isn’t done. If you haven’t made your gift yet, there’s still time to help us finish strong! Your support today opens doors, restores hope, and changes lives.

Compassion changes everything—one family, one day, one decision at a time.

“My husband was a soldier in Vietnam and made a career in law enforcement—which I felt was intimidating to most home health services. When I realized I could no longer care for him safely at home, I needed professional help. Aston Park was my only consideration because of its history and prestigious reputation. The impact has been obvious—the care he receives is over and beyond.

Realizing I had to let him go was the hardest decision I’ve ever made, and I would not have survived that period without the teammates at Aston Park. They saved his life—and mine. Every day when I leave, I know he is loved, and that the teammates care not only for him, but for every single resident.”

At Lutheran Services Carolinas (LSC), stories like this—and senior living communities like Aston Park—are why we are here: so seniors and their families experience safety, dignity, and love when they need it most.

This Giving Tuesday, your gift powers the care, comfort, and connection that residents rely on every single day.

This Giving Tuesday, you can help refugees rebuild their lives and dreams.

Imagine never being asked, “What do you want to be when you grow up?” For many women fleeing Afghanistan and other countries, that was their reality. They left behind mountains, family, and everything familiar to seek safety and hope for their children.

Through Lutheran Services Carolinas, these women are finding strength and confidence in a new land. They’ve faced language barriers, culture shock, and closed doors—but they haven’t given up. With courage and resilience, they are learning, growing, and creating a future filled with possibilities as artisans, creators, and entrepreneurs. Through their hands, hope is woven into every beaded bag, handmade dress, and embroidered gift.

Your gift today makes this journey possible. Every donation helps provide training, support, and opportunities for refugees to thrive. Together, we are creating a tapestry of new beginnings.

Garry and Carol’s journey shows the heart of LSC communities. For nearly 10 years, Trinity Oaks has been Garry’s home. When Carol bravely faced Alzheimer’s, Trinity Oaks was their lifeline—providing care through:

• Trinity Living Center for care and engagement during the day.
• Trinity at Home for in-home support.
• Skilled Nursing at Trinity Oaks Nursing and Rehabilitation for compassionate, quality medical care

Each step was delivered with sensitivity and professionalism, ensuring Carol’s dignity and comfort.

Today, Garry continues to thrive—healthy, independent, and recently back from a trip to England and Scotland! His story reminds us why our work matters: to ensure seniors across North Carolina have the care and community they deserve.

This Giving Tuesday, walk with us. Your gift helps provide safety, compassion, and joy for seniors in LSC communities.

This Giving Tuesday, YOU can help rebuild lives!

When Hurricane Helene destroyed Paulina’s home, she lost everything. After finding a new place to live, there were no resources to help her purchase basic appliances—until Lutheran Services Carolinas (LSC) stepped in.

Thanks to generous supporters, LSC provided a stove and refrigerator, enabling Paulina’s family to start fresh.

Your gift makes stories like Paulina’s possible—and so much more: foster care, assisting New Americans, supporting seniors, and walking alongside those with intellectual and developmental disabilities or traumatic brain injuries.

Be the reason someone finds hope again.
