The Lily Foundation
Supporting Wisconsin's elderly community with compassion, dignity, and care beyond what insurance covers.
Extending Care
Beyond Boundaries
The Lily Foundation is a family-operated non-profit organization created to help the elderly of Wisconsin who need additional support. We believe that no one should face their final chapter without access to compassionate care, community connection, and human dignity.
Too often, elderly patients and their families discover that insurance doesn't cover everything they need. The Lily Foundation bridges that gap — providing financial assistance, volunteer support, and community resources to ensure every Wisconsin senior receives the care they deserve.
Founded by the same family that built Lily Healthcare, the Foundation reflects our core belief that compassionate care is not a privilege — it is a right.

No one should face their final chapter without the dignity they deserve. The Lily Foundation exists to make sure they don't.
Care Is a Right, Not a Privilege

Foundation Story
A Final Adventure for a Family Who Lost Their Son
When a family lost their six-month-old son — a patient in our pediatric hospice program — the Lily Foundation stepped in to give them a gift of healing and memory. We funded a trip to the Sea Life Aquarium at the Mall of America, creating a moment of wonder and togetherness during one of the most difficult seasons of their lives.
This is what the Foundation exists for — not just to cover costs, but to create moments that matter.
Present when it matters most.
Foundation Story
Investing in Music Therapy — Because Healing Has Many Forms
The Lily Foundation donated to the Music Therapy continuing education program — helping therapists deepen their skills and expand what they can offer to patients at end of life. Music therapy has been shown to reduce anxiety, ease pain, and create profound moments of connection between patients and their loved ones.
By investing in the people who provide care, we invest in every patient they will ever serve.
Care beyond the clinical.
Your donation to the Lily Foundation funds moments exactly like these. No overhead. No red tape. Just real families, real impact, right here in Wisconsin.
