The Jean Griswold Foundation

Supporting Those Who Support Others

At Griswold Home Care, we go beyond providing compassionate, attentive care for seniors and adults with disabilities. We believe that everyone should have access to quality in-home care, regardless of their financial status. That’s why our founder, Jean Griswold, started the Jean Griswold Foundation. This 501 C (3) private charity specializes in providing grants to select nonprofit organizations and families supporting respite and supportive services for those in need. Our foundation also assists with funding for local community and grassroots organizations.

Our home care company is the only one that also partners with and supports nonprofits that are dedicated to the same mission: giving people the help they need to live in the place they love. Since 2010, our foundation has given hundreds of grants to various organizations throughout the United States and we look forward to continuing to give back to our communities.

A Legacy of Giving

Our foundation provides grants to organizations that provide age in place care for seniors and adults with disabilities. In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, they have donated thousands of dollars in relief to programs and organizations that have been assisting low-income seniors with food deliveries and other tasks.

For every dollar donated to our foundation, 88% goes directly toward our causes, with the remainder helping to keep our foundation running administratively. Our franchise owners themselves have helped significantly with fundraising and continue to be a shining light in helping raise awareness of the need for assistance for low-income adults.

Support Our Cause

Jean Griswold Foundation looks forward to continuing our work – and we can’t do it alone. We are happy to accept donations and there is no amount too small. We appreciate your commitment to helping people in your community. Together, we can make an impact on the lives of so many.

“We found the people who were such a wonderful match for Mom and I’ve been able to have them consistently. Griswold supported the fact that I would like the same person consistently. I know now a caregiver is at home with Mom.”
- Angelika
“It’s great to have an agency like Griswold that you can go to to help you with the things that you need. Pick up that phone and call and say, “I need help,” and Griswold say, “Okay, what can we do for you?”
- Tony and Linda
“She always calls me when she has a day off or when she leaves. She always calls and I tell my friends, I said, “My aide calls me even when she’s not here.” They can’t believe that.”
- Harriet
“What we liked about Griswold was the flexibility that they provide. They provide all kinds of service. They’re very respectful of our conditions. They help where we need them. They let us do what we want to do. They can do whatever we ask them.”
