United Presbyterians plan Washington aging home
A proposed United Presbyterian Home for the aged in Washington Iowa moves forward with the purchase of the former S. W. Broomhart residence. Plans call for a central unit with wings, landscaped grounds, and rapid growth in memberships from the Midwest. Initial gifts total 3000 and fundraising targets around 59000 with support expected from Iowa and Illinois synods. The project aims to relieve elder care pressures and spur a county wide effort through The Howe Association of Washington Iowa led by John Owen.
