Members of the Religious Society of Friends, also known as Quakers, founded Cadbury at Cherry Hill in 1978. Their philosophies, including social justice, peace and equality, continue to guide the way Cadbury at Cherry Hill operates.
“We look at our understanding the tenets and beliefs of the Quakers and try to apply that. One of the basic things Quakers believe is that there is God in each of us, so everyone is equal. We’re very non-discriminatory. We’re welcoming to all faiths, religions, races, genders, sexual orientations, cultures—everything. We also look at individuals as they age and become more frail, we make sure they are treated with respect and dignity. We apply that in everything that we do,” said Vic Amey, Fellow of the American College of Healthcare Executives (FACHE), president & CEO of Cadbury Senior Services (the parent company of Cadbury at Cherry Hill).
