UMC and the UMC Foundation are proud to be the Standing Ovation Sponsor of the GSA Foundation's 2026 Spring Concert Series.

Here's a highlight of our favorite moments from the latest show on May 28 featuring the iconic Cousin Brucie, Herman's Hermits starring Peter Noone, Tommy James & The Shondells, and an appearance by our very own Samantha Crawford, UMC's Corporate Director of Communications.

This Alzheimer’s & Brain Awareness Month, we're proud to introduce Abundant Minds Mondays, a weekly series designed to help you strengthen brain health and better understand cognitive change.

This week, Pam Garofolo, UMC’s VP of Program Excellence, breaks down what memory changes are a natural part of aging — and when it may be time to take a closer look. Learn more: https://umcommunities.org/resources/blog/understanding-memory-changes-whats-normal-what-s-not-and-when-to-act/

Follow along each Monday for practical insights you can use for yourself or someone you love.

At UMC, we’re always looking for new ways to reimagine what community can be.

This summer, that spirit of innovation comes to life at The Shores, a UMC Community in Ocean City, NJ with the launch of our Artist in Residence program — welcoming Leah Strasser, a Lehigh University sophomore studying cognitive science and studio art.

For the next 10 weeks, she’ll live within the community, collaborating with residents through interactive experiences that blend art, storytelling, and brain science. Stay tuned as this unique program unfolds!

For Michele Temple, Collingswood Manor, a UMC Community became more than a place to live — it became a place to keep growing, connecting, and embracing life.

After a sudden illness changed everything, Michele arrived determined not to slow down. Today, she’s known for her enthusiasm, advocacy, volunteer spirit, and ability to bring people together. Your support helps create communities where older adults can continue discovering purpose, friendship, creativity, and joy every day.

As Michele says: “It feels personal.”
