We are proud that Emmy Monash is the leading Jewish residential aged care provider in Melbourne. For more than 80 years we have upheld our founding vision — excellence in care and living life to its fullest.

Our performance against the Aged Care Quality Standards is exemplary and we continue to exceed expectations and innovation in the industry. The coronavirus pandemic in 2020 brought obvious challenges and yet we excelled. 

We remained covid-free and set enviable benchmarks for infection control, quality and risk management.

As an organisation, our achievements and awards are numerous and yet our future is uncertain. Looking ahead, our biggest challenge is to navigate the chronic underfunding of the aged care sector. This nationwide issue threatens our ability to deliver the superior experience that our residents deserve.

Government funding alone will not secure our future. We rely heavily on the generosity of our community. Your ongoing commitment to support Emmy Monash is vital. Without you we cannot continue enriching residents’ lives with our exceptional programs and services.

The Emmy Monash Foundation will enable us to continue providing care and stability for our elderly. It will serve to ensure that residents can enjoy the highest standard of holistic care in a heimish environment, now and into the future.

We warmly invite you to become one of the first to join the Emmy Monash Foundation. This is your opportunity to continue the longheld Jewish traditions of tzedakah and philanthropy now and for future generations.

Innovative Programs

At Emmy our award-winning, innovative programs enrich lives. Every resident benefits from activities that foster stimulation and community engagement.

Five key pillars underpin our award-winning programs. These pillars ensure we stay true to our founding vision and they inform the scope and depth of every activity at Emmy. Each residential program meets at least one pillar, enriching the lives of those who call Emmy Monash home, now and in the future.

Meaningful programs are fundamental to our holistic care approach.

In addition to being enjoyable and stimulating, these carefully curated programs can combat isolation, support mental health and provide opportunities for those with mobility restrictions. Our programs also offer a valuable communicative outlet for residents living with dementia — this is increasingly important given the prevalence of cognitive decline among our ageing community.

Unfortunately, government funding does not cover the costs associated with running meaningful programs. We rely on generous donor support to ensure these valuable programs continue.

Strong community partnerships support the delivery of our programs and are integral to the outstanding Emmy experience enjoyed by residents. Our close ties with Jewish schools and community groups are integral to thriving cultural connections across multiple generations.

Leaving a Legacy

When we think of losing a loved one, often a way to keep their memory alive is by commemorating them in perpetuity at Emmy Monash. 

By giving a legacy gift in memory of your loved one, you too can help Emmy continue critical work and ensure their memory lives on in a meaningful way.

Your generosity will shape our future.

Similarly, a planned gift by leaving a bequest in your Will enriches the lives of those who call Emmy home, now and into the future. Please consider adding Emmy to receive a nomination or percentage of your estate. Including a gift for Emmy Monash in your Will is an empowering way to make a lasting impact on the lives of many.

Your gift will be recognised on Emmy’s honour boards and inscribed in our Tree of Life so that the memory of your loved one will live on.

Experience the joy of giving — now and into the future

We warmly welcome you to join us as we begin a new era and become the first members of the Emmy Monash Foundation.

Your pledge can be across several years and customised to ensure a meaningful investment in the future of the senior Jewish community of Melbourne.

Your generous gift will add to the cumulative lifetime of your previous giving and echo across generations at Emmy Monash, bringing vital assistance where it’s needed most. All donations to Emmy Monash are fully tax deductible.

Now is the time to care for the generation that has always cared for us
