Supporting Caledonia Senior Living & Memory Care

Our dedication to nourishing Scottish identity through service, fellowship and celebration of Scottish culture allows us the great honor of supporting our primary charity, Caledonia Senior Living & Memory Care, in North Riverside, Illinois.

Our five-acre, forested campus is a beautiful setting for the historic Scottish Home (opened in 1910) and the MacLean House memory care residence (opened in 2016). At Caledonia Senior Living & Memory Care, we offer a continuum of care from Assisted Living to Skilled Nursing with care provided in the Scottish Way: Home, Family and Love.
