Wellness Tip

Chest up tall! When you stand tall during exercise, you activate the muscle that flattens

your belly. To do this, pretend you are getting your picture taken. If you are like most

people, you automatically stand with your chest up tall. Be sure not to hold your breath.

Doing that simple little move can make every exercise a belly flattener.

LEAVING A LEGACY: WHAT IS THE LIVING LEGACY CLUB?

The Living Legacy Club was created to recognize and honor exceptionally committed individuals

who have provided critical, long-term support through their estate plans and understand the

importance of ensuring that Life Enriching Communities Foundation continue its efforts to impact

Twin Towers and Twin Lakes Senior Living Communities through engaging others to generate

needed resources. Philanthropy through estate planning is essential to advance and enhance the

continuity of LEC communities and to sustain the organization’s ministry well into the future.

YOUR LEGACY’S CAN IMPACT LEC’S:

Benevolent Fund: The cornerstone of our ministry, this fund ensures the residents of Twin

Towers that have outlived their personal financial resources or experienced a catastrophic event

continue to live at home, receiving the highest quality care and community.

Pastoral Fund: The heart of our ministry, this fund preserves, protects and perpetuates our

spiritual foundation by supporting services, such as chaplaincy needs, life transition and

bereavement counseling, along with worship services and study programs.

Greatest Need: This fund ensures the Twin Towers community receives the highest quality of

support and resources by supporting the greatest needs, such as supplement for unfunded

Benevolent and Pastoral Care and tuition reimbursement for our associates.

Charitable gift annuities

Charitable remainder trusts

Gifts of life insurance
