Honoring Our Roots: $1.023 Million Gift to the Dr Pepper Museum in Cornerstone Caregiving’s Name

At Cornerstone Caregiving, our primary mission is to provide compassionate, high-quality care to seniors so they can safely age in place. But our dedication extends beyond the homes of the families we serve. We are deeply committed to investing in the communities we call home. Today, we are incredibly humbled and thrilled to share some major news regarding our headquarters’ hometown of Waco, Texas.

Recently, the Hillman Family Foundation generously committed $1.023 million to the historic Dr Pepper Museum in downtown Waco. We were profoundly honored to learn that this incredible philanthropic gift was made specifically in honor of Cornerstone Caregiving, celebrating our ongoing commitment to the city and our decision to bring our corporate headquarters to the heart of downtown Waco.

Preserving History, Caring for the Future

For us, the connection between our mission and a local history museum is clear. Caregiving is fundamentally about preserving history. Every day, our caregivers work tirelessly to honor the legacies, stories, and dignity of the older generations. The Dr Pepper Museum does the exact same thing for the city of Waco. It preserves the rich, unique history of our town so that future generations can learn from it and enjoy it.

Furthermore, caring for seniors starts with building a strong, vibrant community where people of all ages can thrive and make memories together. The Dr Pepper Museum is a place where multiple generations, including grandparents, parents, and grandchildren, can connect over shared local history. We believe that a thriving, connected community is the foundation of good care, and we are proud to be a pillar of downtown Waco’s continued growth and revitalization.

A Heartfelt Thank You

We want to extend our deepest gratitude to the Hillman Family Foundation for their extraordinary generosity and for recognizing our team’s commitment to this city. This gift is a testament to the fact that when businesses and philanthropic organizations work together, the whole community benefits.

We also want to thank the Dr Pepper Museum for being such a fantastic neighbor and a cultural touchstone for families across Texas. We look forward to watching the museum continue to flourish with this new support.

To our clients, caregivers, and staff: thank you for making Cornerstone Caregiving the kind of organization that inspires such incredible community investment. We are proud of the work we do, and we are proud to do it from right here in Waco.
