body: In 1963, Philadelphia Yearly Meeting appointed a Committee on the Care of Aging Friends to examine Quaker facilities for the elderly. Four years later, the first Quaker-sponsored lifecare community in the Delaware Valley was built by Gwynedd Friends Meeting at Foulkeways. Kendal at Longwood was the third such Quaker-sponsored project. Under the auspices of Friends Hall at West Chester, a committee met to investigate sites, and were able to purchase 77.6 acres at Longwood in Kennett Square in 1971. They formed a new corporation, Kendal at Longwood, in 1973. The first residents moved into their apartments in October that same year. The Kendal at Longwood Residents Association was founded a month later, on November 28, 1973, when 200 people met to adopt a constitution and elect officers.
