CAHEC Connection
May 2018
In This Issue
The CAHEC Foundation offers a one-time Rex Williams Wellness Grant that provides funding toward up-fitting a CAHEC-sponsored property's wellness room. Since 2000, nearly $1.2 million has been granted to provide quality fitness equipment for residents to utilize on-site. 

Mary - like many residents living at CAHEC-sponsored properties - thoroughly enjoys using the on-site wellness center at Sumter Senior, a senior housing development located in Sumter, SC. "I'm 62 years old and know it's important for me to stay active. I'm happy when I exercise; it gives me energy and keeps me going!" 

Access to a gym wasn't always easy for Mary. "Before I moved into Sumter Senior, I used to sit at the bus stop and ride to the local YMCA where I'd exercise for about an hour. I always had to make sure I left the gym in enough time to catch the bus back home." Naturally, having access to an on-site wellness center now saves a lot of time and money for Mary. "With the round-trip bus fare and YMCA membership, I was paying about $70 a month. Now, I can walk down to the wellness center for free and exercise as long as I like - no bus fares and no gym membership." 

The 2018 CAHEC Partners Conference is just a few weeks away and we have some exciting things planned for our attendees this year. The list below will help you get prepared for an exciting two days of networking and industry updates.
  1. This year's Tuesday night dinner will be carnival themed! We don't expect attendees to dress up, but there will be plenty of fun games, food, and music to celebrate the night.
  2. We will be utilizing a mobile app for the conference agenda, speaker bios, and announcements. Be sure to keep an eye on your email for information on how to download the app before the conference.
  3. CAHEC will be live-tweeting! Follow @CAHEC_Raleigh for updates and use #CAHECPC18 to join the conversation. You can also follow us on Facebook for conference updates.
  4. Our Partners Appreciation luncheon will be held on Wednesday, June 6, at noon. Join us as we recognize the hard work and achievements of this year's CAHEC Award recipients.
  5. Don't leave early! We have some great panelists and fabulous door prizes lined up for our Wednesday afternoon sessions.

On Saturday, April 21, several CAHEC staff and family members gathered in downtown Raleigh, NC, to participate in the 2018 Triangle Walk to Defeat ALS. Each year, thousands of people come together to raise money to help find a treatment for this incurable disease. 


Our staff proudly walks in memory of Rex Williams, a former CAHEC board member who passed away in 2012 after a courageous four-year battle with ALS. Rex was a man who touched numerous lives, especially at CAHEC, and inspired all who knew him with his sense of humor and smile.

To learn more about ALS, or to donate to the cause, please visit the ALS Association website.
MissionMission in Action

  • Several CAHEC staff volunteered at the Interfaith Food Shuttle's Camden Street Learning Garden earlier this month, helping them dig an irrigation line and painting pavers for a new path entrance. We are proud to partner with such a great organization who helps residents have access to nutritious meals year-round!
  • Did you know the CAHEC Foundation is a registered charity with AmazonSmile? When you purchase items at smile.amazon.com and set the CAHEC Foundation as your supporting charity, Amazon will donate 0.5% of your purchase to the CAHEC Foundation. Please help us spread the word if you, or your organization, make purchases through Amazon. The donations we raise will help fund the grants and initiatives the CAHEC Foundation offers to low-income residents throughout our footprint.
