Steeped in the rich history of Laramie, the Ivinson Home for Ladies stands as a testament to the enduring philanthropic vision of its benefactors, Edward and Jane Ivinson. In 1930, they commissioned this magnificent building not merely as a structure, but as a sanctuary where senior women could thrive with dignity, security, and grace. Every detail of its stunning Victorian architecture was thoughtfully planned to foster a sense of belonging and elegance. For nearly a century, this historic landmark has fulfilled its promise, offering a stable and cherished home for generations of women who have contributed to the vibrant tapestry of our community.
Life at the Ivinson Home artfully blends the freedom of independent living with the comfort of thoughtful, personalized attention. Residents enjoy the privacy of their own beautifully appointed suites, which they are encouraged to furnish with their belongings to create a space that is uniquely their own. Beyond their private doors, a warm and sociable atmosphere awaits. Days are enriched by delicious, chef-prepared meals served in the stately dining room, engaging conversations in sunlit parlors, and a calendar of activities that nurtures both friendship and individual interests. With hotel-like amenities such as housekeeping and dedicated staff attending to daily needs, residents are free to enjoy a secure, worry-free lifestyle.
We invite you to discover the unique spirit of our community, where companionship and independence flourish in a setting of unmatched historical charm. The Ivinson Home is more than just a residence; it is a place where new friendships are forged and life is celebrated. Our dedicated staff and trustees are deeply committed to upholding the Ivinson legacy of care and hospitality, ensuring a supportive and vibrant environment for every lady who calls this house her home. We welcome you and your family to visit, tour our lovely grounds, and experience firsthand the warmth and character that make the Ivinson Home one of Laramie’s most treasured institutions.
