By offering Independent Living, Assisted Living, Memory Care, Long-Term Care along with Home Health Services (to support independent living residents should they choose), we are able to provide a seamless transition as your needs change. Residents can remain in the same 40-acre community as their healthcare needs evolve, without the stress for them or their families of trying to find a “suitable new home”.
People who live at Glencroft, and those who visit our community often say, “There is a difference you can feel.” We believe that difference comes from the passion we have to carry out our mission, our vision, and how we live out our core values.
DEAR RESIDENTS,
March 24, 2023
You may be aware that we closed the large Villa walkway bridge due to safety concerns. I am pleased to share, we are ready to launch construction to replace all Villa walkway bridges. The project includes an enhanced upper level balcony for resident use, a flagstone-look entry at the central Villa entrance (near the laundry) and the same flagstone-look at the Villa Town Center Entry (near the bank).
The Villa walkway project will be completed in three phases and we anticipate all construction phases will be complete by July 1st. In order to keep the project length short, construction may occur on weekdays between 6:00am and 7:00pm and on some Saturdays, between 7:30am and 6:00pm. The noisiest parts of construction should start after 7:30am. The Villa Activity Center elevator will remain available for use during the entire project.
The first phase of the project will begin Monday, March 27th and take four to six weeks to complete. This phase consists of the replacement of the large bridge above the Villa Laundry Room and requires temporary relocation of eight independent living residents and two assisted living residents. All of these residents have been notified.
Because this phase of the project requires the Villa Laundry Room closure, arrangements have made to meet resident laundry needs. When the first phase is complete, the Villa Laundry Room will reopen and the central Villa Elevator will also reopen.
Caution tape, barriers and signage will be used to advise residents, staff and visitors of areas that are off-limits for safety reasons. It is imperative that all individuals comply with the restrictions and avoid the construction areas.
Phase two and three of the project may require other residents to be temporarily relocated. Prior to those phases starting, we will communicate directly with those that will be impacted.
In addition to written and verbal communications and Town Hall updates, we have established a call in number with recorded project updates. You can call 623-847-3008 any time to hear a pre-recorded message of the latest updates. Project status will be updated on Channel 2 and Glencroftliving.com.
Thank you, in advance, for your patience and understanding during this necessary project.

What is GCA?
As a Glencroft resident, you are automatically a GCA member. There are no dues involved.
The stated purpose of the Glencroft Community Association (GCA) is:
1. Act as liaison between the residents of Glencroft and the Glencroft Administration;
2. Assist in providing services and activities for the residents.
The GCA is an organization designed to be the resident voice of Glencroft and to assist in providing effective communications between the Community and Glencroft management. In addition, the GCA is charged with assisting in providing services and activities that will directly benefit the membership and to support the many volunteer activities that make Glencroft a wonderful place to live. This “purpose” is accomplished by a GCA Administrative Board consisting of positions elected from within the GCA membership. A listing of these positions is included in the Bylaws. You may obtain a copy of the GCA Bylaws at the Concierge’s Office in the Villa.
There is a GCA membership meeting held once a month (except in June, July and August). This Community Meeting starts at 3:30 PM in the Glencroft Auditorium on the first Tuesday of each month. Notice of the upcoming Community meetings and minutes of the prior months meeting are posted on the area bulletin boards. Meeting notices are also published in “The Informer” and included on Glencroft Channel 2, as well as your “Smart Phone” App. Remember, it’s your GCA! We hope to see you at these meetings, as a quorum of 55 is necessary to conduct a legitimate meeting.
Services and Activities: The GCA supports and provides funding for the following Glencroft services and activities:
- Annual monetary gifts to Glendale Fire and Police Departments
- Campus beautification requests
- Campus Computer Support
- Friday Night Entertainment
- Glencroft Channel 2 and Channel 4
- Nurses Week
- Off-campus bus trips by the Activities Department
- Resident Birthday Parties
- Resident Telephone Directory
- Special Projects
- Tell Tillie Newsletter bi-monthly
- The Informer
- The Marie Kauffman Library
The GCA Board Supervises the following GCA activities:
- Craft Room Activities (Ceramics, quilting and woodcarving)
- Fund Raising Activities:
- Annual Food Drive for the less fortunate
- Employees’ Gift Fund Drive
- Resident Representatives Activity
- Spiritual Life Activity
- Marketplace Activity
- Thrift Store Activity
- Tulip Patch Activity (our gift store in Providence Place)
You might ask, “How does the GCA fund these efforts?”. Our income is derived from the purchases you make from Ceramics, Marketplace, Thrift Store, Tulip Patch and the various “Donation” boxes located on campus.
We encourage you to find some activity to participate and/or volunteer your talents, time and energy somewhere on campus. There are so many places here that need volunteers, such as: being a Resident Representative or serving in the Market Place, the Thrift Shop or the Tulip Patch. You could read to residents whose eye sight is declining, lead in group devotions, Bible studies or many other opportunities. If you are interested in becoming a volunteer, pick up an application form in the Activities Center.
