ways to give

The Danish Home Foundation

The Danish Home Foundation is a not-for-profit organization funded and operated 100% by private donations and endowments. These donations preserve the purpose and spirit of The Danish Home, envisioned by its founders, to provide care and a safe, comfortable haven for older people.

The Danish Home was busy renovating and remodeling to meet the needs of today’s seniors.

(The facility does not currently meet the minimum staffing ratios required by law. Posted at the direction of the Illinois Department of Public Health.)

The Danish Home is required to post the State’s notice because we did not report our staffing ratio ON TIME to the state. However, we maintain a greater than required staffing ratio at all times.
