Dementia Inclusive Cincinnati Initiative

Every 3 seconds, someone in the world develops dementia, and it is estimated the number will almost double every 20 years, reaching 131.5 million in 2050. The number is staggering and how to care for people with Alzheimer’s and other forms of dementia is a growing concern across cultures around the world.

Founded by Episcopal Retirement Services and launched in 2017, Dementia Inclusive Cincinnati gathered public, private and non-profit organizations with a goal to gain acceptance for people living with the disease, and, by 2025, establish Cincinnati as the most dementia-inclusive city in America. Founding partners include the Alzheimer’s Chapter of Greater Cincinnati, the City of Cincinnati and the UC Health Gardner Neuroscience Institute.

The Dementia Inclusive Cincinnati initiative strives to create safe and welcoming places within our community. With an emphasis on engagement and inclusion, community partners and local businesses are committed to providing programs and opportunities for increased socialization and support for people living with dementia and their care partners. Creating a climate of inclusiveness and understanding is the right thing to do and will undoubtedly benefit the quality of life for all ages.

A dementia inclusive community offers:

  • Education for the community to increase awareness and understanding;
  • A safe place, free of embarrassment or discrimination, for people with dementia and their caregivers to live with dignity and respect;
  • Supportive practices to enrich the lives of people with dementia and their caregivers.

Ways we can all help and be involved with people living with dementia:

  • Spend time working to understand dementia;
  • Build awareness by sharing what you learn and experience;
  • Volunteer to help dementia inclusive initiatives in your community;
  • Be willing to interact and embrace the needs of people living with dementia.

We love children, and children love Redeemer!

Children are at the heart of life at Redeemer. Children learn about the word of God through our Children's Christian Education programs; they are involved in worship services, they play music in our services, and they form lifelong friendships with each other through their experiences.

Make a Donation Altar Flowers Endowment Fund Commitment 2021

Thank you for supporting the mission and ministry of Church of the Redeemer!

To give a one time gift, click the button below. To make a financial commitment for 2021, use the Commitment 2021 tab above.

Donate

Flowers in our holy worship spaces are a beautiful gift to God and those who attend services at Church of the Redeemer as well as those being honored or remembered. A contribution to the Flower Fund is a meaningful way to honor or remember a loved one for special life events such as birthdays, anniversaries, baptisms, confirmations, thanksgivings, or in memory of a loved one.

Donate

The Church of the Redeemer is blessed to have received special gifts from parishioners who wanted Redeemer to have permanent savings to care for our facilities and to supplement our pledge income.

Such permanent savings are often called an “endowment.” The endowed funds are permanently set aside by donors or by the Vestry. Some of our donors have specified uses for their endowment gifts. A limited portion of the funds is distributed each year to supplement our general budget. All funds are invested with professional advice.

What about your connection to Redeemer changes the way you live in this world? Your financial commitment is a response to the work that God is doing with you here. It is a practical way to ensure that others are able to experience the relationships of holy connection and communion that are shaping your life.

For 2021, we ask that you make your commitment through regular scheduled electronic giving, if possible. Whether it be weekly or annually, giving electronically is a safe and sustainable way to ensure your continued financial support.
