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
Watch the Londonderry Happenings and CATIE for monthly updates, collection details, and ways to participate!
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.

April
Resident Impact: April Giving Back Success
St. Vincent de Paul, Easton, MD
Thanks to the incredible generosity of Londonderry residents, our April Giving Back initiative in support of St. Vincent de Paul – Easton was a tremendous success.
Residents donated over three carloads of items, including clothing, housewares, home décor, and non-perishable food. These contributions will go directly toward supporting local individuals and families in need throughout Talbot County.
We’re also excited to continue our partnership by hosting a St. Vincent de Paul pop-up shop in early May, further supporting their mission.
Once again, our residents have shown what makes this community so special: their generosity, compassion, and commitment to helping others continue to make a meaningful difference.
May
Supporting Our Military Families
In May, Londonderry is proud to support For All Seasons and their Military Family Mental Health Access campaign.
On the Eastern Shore, 1 in 4 residents is connected to the military, as a service member, veteran, or immediate family member. This makes supporting military-connected individuals especially meaningful within our community.
For All Seasons provides essential mental health services designed specifically for veterans and their families. In just the third quarter of 2025, their clinicians served more than 350 military-connected individuals, including 114 children, ensuring access to care during critical moments of need.
Your Impact
Donations to this campaign help provide:
All services are delivered by clinicians who are 100% certified in Maryland military assistance, strengthening their ability to support suicide prevention and specialized care for military families.
How to Support
Your contribution helps ensure that every military-connected individual and family in our community has access to compassionate, expert mental health care when it matters most.
To make a donation, please contact Erica.
Londonderry will match all monetary donations.
Thank you.
Thank you for being part of the Londonderry story— past, present, and future.
Here’s to celebrating 35 years of community, connection, and giving back!
