Through the generosity of our residents at Erickson Senior Living communities across the country, the Staff Appreciation Fund distributed an incredible amount—more than $7 million—to eligible hourly/non-exempt team members in 2024.
Here are a few statistics that put this total into perspective:
-
$7 million represents our all-time high, an increase of 16.8% from 2023—the previous record year.
-
In 2024, every community surpassed their giving level from 2023.
- Nearly 80 percent of the total workforce received a contribution—12,486 team members to be exact.
Sarah Kokinos, vice president of community living, stated, “We continue to be amazed by the depth of gratitude displayed by residents. Their generosity is a simple expression of appreciation to team members for doing a job well done. In turn, we value the caring manner in which our team members go about their jobs. The Staff Appreciation Fund reflects the win-win spirit that helps everyone live better lives at Erickson Senior Living communities.”
