Boston-based Hebrew SeniorLife has announced a $15 million gift from Dr. Miriam and Sheldon G. Adelson of Las Vegas to support a proposed multi-generational-care campus on one hundred and sixty-two acres in Dedham, Massachusetts.

The new campus will include senior supportive housing, assisted living, long-term care, short-term acute care, and a K-8 school. In recognition of the gift, the largest in the organization's 102-year history, the new campus will be named for the Adelsons.

"We make this leadership gift with the hope that it will inspire other philanthropic families to step up and support Hebrew SeniorLife," said Sheldon Adelson, developer of the Venetian casino in Las Vegas and chairman of the Las Vegas Sands Corporation. "This is an organization that is transforming senior care, and my wife and I now have the honor of supporting it."
