Presbyterian Manors of Mid-America
WICHITA — A well-known face at Salina Presbyterian Manor has a new role with parent company PMMA (Presbyterian Manors of Mid-America®). The Department of Giving has named Jenni Jones as the director of giving, a newly created role focused on building relationships with donors and volunteers at Salina Presbyterian Manor, Clay Center Presbyterian Manor, and Manor of the Plains in Dodge City.
“Jenni’s time will be focused on building internal and external relationships to advance PMMA’s mission,” said Sarah Oenning, vice president, Department of Giving. “Our goal with the position is to increase donor and volunteer engagement to have a meaningful and long-term impact on fundraising strategies.”
Jones has been a part of the PMMA family since 2016 when she was hired as director of sales and marketing at Salina Presbyterian Manor before later becoming regional director of marketing and sales. In this new position, Jones will get a chance to play an active part in helping the organization achieve its mission and better serve the people she has gotten to know and love.
“I have always shared in PMMA’s mission to provide quality senior services guided by Christian values and I have seen over the last six years what giving can do to bless our residents and staff,” said Jones. “I wanted to be a part of the team that shares our mission to the communities through love, faith, charity and other Christian principles.”
Jones was born and raised in the Salina area and has a broad network of community members, friends and family in Dodge City and Clay Center as well. Her passion for seniors began when she would help take care of her own grandmother who lived in an assisted living community. It instilled in her a desire to spread love while extending a helping hand.
“I love helping people, especially the elders in our community. They have paved the way for me and I’m trying to give back,” said Jones.
