Gives Back
Our commitment to caregivers and the communities we serve is at the heart of our mission. Through partnerships with organizations across Massachusetts, we work to give back to those who need it most. Together, we can strengthen the support we provide to families—and extend that impact even further.
Supporting Our Community
A Day of Caring with United Way
Vitra team members volunteered during United Way of Greater Plymouth County’s Day of Caring making a difference in the community beyond healthcare. We created two gardens in the front lawn of the Old Colony YMCA in Brockton and packed 100s of backpacks for School on Wheels in East Bridgewater.

Every time we refer a new member, we hear wonderful feedback about the care and kindness provided by Vitra. One of the most meaningful impacts is seeing how families feel peace of mind knowing they will receive financial support and human-centered care.

Not only do I care for my mother but the Vitra team monitors her regularly. Besides that, they pay you for the service that is going to be good for your family members. And that makes me feel very happy to have learned about the Vitra Health program.

The Vitra Health program has been a wonderful experience for us. Since starting this program, it has helped not only with communication and care for her health from daily living, but also with following up on doctor appointments. I encourage all families to try to join this program.

I’m taking care of my brother and mother, helping with medications, and trips to the hospital. I had economic hardships, paying the bills, but now through Vitra Health I have a monthly income and I can spend more time with my family.

When my grandmother was 88 years old we decided not to put her in a nursing home, and we found the Vitra Health program. We cared for her until she was 102 and the program was so very good for her. We were happy with it.

Since spring 2024, we as a family have been benefiting from the Vitra Health program AND the excellent and timely training that is given to us in our own home to better care for our twins with special needs and of course, the monetary benefit that we receive.
