Annual Report

Twenty years ago, a vision took root in the hills of Fearrington — that senior living could be defined by wellness, purpose, and genuine human connection. As we reflect on this milestone year, we are proud to say that vision has never been more alive. This report celebrates not just what we’ve accomplished, but who made it possible — our extraordinary residents, dedicated employees, committed Board members, and generous donors. Together, they are the reason Galloway Ridge continues to be a place where people thrive.

2025 was a year of meaningful momentum. Our community grew to 487 residents, our team expanded to 369 employees, and our campus saw $5.8 million in capital improvements — all while maintaining the financial strength and disciplined stewardship that protect our long-term future. Independent Living occupancy remained at effectively full capacity, and total revenue grew for the year — a testament to the enduring value of the Galloway Ridge experience.

Our commitment to excellence was recognized nationally. This year, Galloway Ridge received four prestigious awards honoring our culture of wellness, our dedication to exceptional senior care, and our investment in the people who make this community extraordinary. These honors belong to every resident and every team member — they are a reflection of what we build together, every single day.

The generosity of our community continued to inspire. Donors contributed more than $807,000 across our charitable funds and the employee appreciation fund — supporting residents in need, investing in our employees, and strengthening the Chatham County community we are proud to call home. Through our Chatham County Charitable Fund alone, more than $122,000 was distributed to local nonprofits, schools, and agencies — extending our mission far beyond our campus.

And we celebrated. In June, we marked 20 years of Galloway Ridge with a month of remembrance, reflection, and
joy — honoring the 1,029 residents who have called this place home, the 31 original residents still with us, and the dedicated team members who have been here since the very beginning. It was a celebration worthy of everything this community represents.

As we look ahead, we carry forward the values that have always defined us — caring, commitment, empowerment, and integrity — with gratitude for where we’ve been and confidence in where we’re going. On behalf of our Board of Directors, our leadership team, and every member of the Galloway Ridge family — thank you for being part of this remarkable story. The pages that follow are filled with the moments, milestones, and people that make Galloway Ridge so special. We invite you to explore them with pride.
