Martin Luther Homes is more than just an aged care centre and a retirement village. We are a community that is open to the world, yet safely nestled at the foothills of the beautiful Dandenong Ranges. We were founded over 50 years ago by members of our community for the community. In this article you can find out who these people were, how far we have come, and why we have always preserved our village-feel while remaining faithful to our not-for-profit principles.
In 2019, we celebrated our 50th anniversary as an organisation with a big open-air festival that everyone was invited to. Hundreds of visitors, residents, staff, friends, families, and neighbours joined us to mark this important milestone in our history.
It was back in 1969 when our founding fathers and mothers put the spate in the ground to build a sanctuary for older people who were planning to share their twilight years with like-minded friends and seniors. They had the vision to create a place where they know they are always safe and cared for, should a time of need ever arise.
