Baptist Homes is a not-for-profit charitable organization ministering to seniors in the South Hills of Pittsburgh since 1910. Founded by American Baptist Churches, our mission has expanded over the years and now provides almost 300 older adults with a full continuum of services on our Mt. Lebanon campus. These include nursing and dementia care, assisted living, wellness and rehabilitation therapies, and independent living, with a commitment to excellence and benevolence. Our organization has earned accreditation from the Continuing Care Accreditation Commission. Visit Baptist Home's website to learn more about this ministry. http://www.baptisthomes.org/

In order to minister to even more senior adults, Baptist Homes is developing a new continuing care retirement community (CCRC). Providence Point will be located on a separate campus just a short distance from our current facility, and will provide a new lifestyle option for active seniors under a lifecare contract. With an anticipated opening in late 2008, Providence Point will offer 216 independent apartments and 36 private homes, with a central commons area offering different dining venues, a library, art studio, theater, and fully equipped wellness center and pool.

The construction of a 3-storey addition with a useable basement will better enable the Center to meet the needs of their target group: at-risk and after-school children, head start program, senior citizens, the mentally challenged clients and their caregivers. The Center serves over 10,000 children, youth, families and seniors each year.

Rankin Christian Center is a nonprofit, faith-based center located in the Mon Valley, east of Pittsburgh. The Center's purpose is to minister to the physical, social, cultural, and spiritual needs of children, youth, and families.

Founded in 1904, the Rankin Christian Center has taught individuals and families new ways to grow spiritually and emotionally through a variety of program services. The Center touches lives of people through integrated, strengths-based approach to meeting client's needs.

Rankin Christian Center is located in the heart of Rankin Boro, one of the most economically depressed areas of Allegheny County. The Center responds to challenges by actively seeking strategic partnerships with other groups and providers to better address the community needs.

The Center supports the needy and disadvantaged of all faiths, genders, ages, and ethnicities.
