Music therapy is a clinical and evidence-based use of music interventions to accomplish individualized goals within a therapeutic relationship by a credentialed professional. With developing a Ukulele program, we will make a positive change in mood, enhance awareness of self, improve on self-esteem or personal insight, adopt a can-do attitude, and most importantly building relationships with friends who enjoy playing music.
Instruments: $42 each
Total program cost: $1,050
Gardening is a passion that is greatly missed when one’s mobility begins to diminish. Green Circle Gardens allow everyone, regardless of mobility, to be able to enjoy cultivating and nursing flowers, fruits and vegetables, and even enjoy them for a true “Farm to Table” experience. The Michigan Masonic Home wants to provide a total of 28 planter units to be placed throughout the Michigan Masonic Home facilities to encourage greater outdoor activity and regrow our residents’ love of gardening.

Planters: $1,099 each
Total project cost: $30,772
Up to 75% of victims of stroke or radiation treatment patients suffer from dysphagia, difficulty or inability to swallow safely. VitalStim therapy is a safe and effective, non-invasive treatment that can help patients relieve the difficulty and stress of using feeding tubes, and even possibly regain the ability to swallow safely.
The Michigan Masonic Home wants to add these vital devices to their therapy resources in both the Warwick Rehabilitation Center and the Masonic Home.
2 VitalStim machines: $1,200 each
VitalStim Training for Speech Therapist: $1,000
Total project cost: $3,400
A Synchrony system is specifically designed for speech-language pathologists to enable patients suffering from dysphagia to visualize swallowing activity using virtual reality biofeedback.

2 Synchrony Systems: $5,000 each
Total project cost: $10,000
