Londonderry Gives Back

Celebrating 35 Years of Londonderry on the Tred Avon

For 35 years, Londonderry on the Tred Avon has been a place where neighbors become friends, independence is celebrated, and community truly comes first. Locally owned and operated since the beginning, Londonderry is proud to celebrate this special milestone with our residents, team, and the greater community.

Nestled along the peaceful waters of Maryland’s Eastern Shore, Londonderry was founded with a forward-thinking vision:
– A place where retirees could live life on their own terms
– Remain independent
– Have a meaningful voice in the community they call home

From the start, Londonderry has been more than a residence—it is a resident-owned cooperative community, shaped by shared experiences, lasting friendships, and a deep connection to the land and water that surround us.

What to Expect
in 2026:

Each month, Londonderry will highlight a local charity that holds special meaning to our residents and team
Residents, team members, families, and friends will be invited to donate items or contribute funds
For select charities, Londonderry will match monetary donations

Highlights

January

Donations collected for the Talbot Humane Society

In January, Londonderry residents and team members gave back to our friends at the Talbot Humane Society. Many of our residents and team members have pets they dearly love or fondly cherish the memories of pets who have been part of their lives. Several residents have also opened their hearts and homes by adopting senior animals from local shelters.

Thanks to the generosity of our community, all donated items were Sailor-approved!

February

Supporting the Londonderry- Satellite Rotary Club Senior Supply Drive

In February, Londonderry proudly supported our Satellite Rotary Club in its efforts to give back through the Senior Supply Drive hosted by the Talbot County Health Department.

Each year, the Londonderry Satellite Rotary Club helps support senior citizens throughout Talbot County by collecting essential supplies and items that many individuals may struggle to afford. Thanks to the generosity of our residents, we made meaningful contributions to help local seniors maintain their health, dignity, and independence.

“The Londonderry residents are always so generous. It is so appreciated by everyone.”
— Carrie Ottey, Community Health Nurse Program Supervisor, Talbot County Health Department

We are grateful to our residents and team members who continue to embody the spirit of giving that defines Londonderry.

March

Supporting the Neighborhood Service Center (NSC) Food Pantry

As part of celebrating Londonderry’s 35th anniversary, our residents and team members wanted to give back to the community that has supported us for decades 💙

Throughout the year, we are highlighting local charities that hold special meaning for our residents, their families, and our team.

In March, we were proud to support the Neighborhood Service Center Food Pantry. Together, we collected a tremendous number of needed items—so many that it took multiple trips to deliver them all! In addition, we raised over $200 in monetary donations to help support their mission.

We are so thankful to our residents, families, and team members for their generosity and continued commitment to giving back. Your kindness is what makes our community so special.
