This commitment to environmentally conscious approaches reflects Kendal’s Quaker roots. In alignment with our Quaker-inspired values, we believe human beings are stewards of the earth and should protect and preserve it for future generations. As environmental threats to the planet become more visible and increase in depth and breadth, the pursuit of sustainable initiatives has evolved into a moral and imperative action for the organization. Kendal’s commitment to combating climate change recognizes the collective effort of many individuals and organizations. When we all take small steps to change the here and the now, we can ultimately design a better world for our children and grandchildren.

Our commitment to sustainability is reflected in a wide variety of programs found at Kendal affiliates across the country. While the operational aspects of these programs are managed by the professional staffs at each Kendal affiliate, residents are the biggest champions and drivers of Kendal’s sustainability efforts. Kendal residents are committed to protecting the environment and are motivated to find new ways to reduce the carbon footprint of their homes and their community. Committees of residents steer their community’s sustainability efforts by focusing on various areas, including the buildings and grounds, energy efficiency, climate change, water management and recycling.
