Meet Gina, a resident of Atria at Foster Square. Gina recently took on an exciting new challenge – learning how to play the piano.

When the community welcomed a live band to perform for their monthly community concert, Gina didn’t just enjoy the music – she made a new friend in the band’s pianist. The two connected over their shared love of music, talked about tips and techniques, and Gina even got the chance to show off her new skills at the end of the show.

Music truly brings people together!

We believe that people belong together, and nothing proves that more than the joy that comes when new friendships form!

Meet Barbara and Eric, who met when Barbara moved into Atria Forest Hills six months ago. They first connected through our Atria Resident Ambassador program. Eric showed Barbara around the community and invited her to activities. Their friendship blossomed through natural conversations and sharing their interests.

Barbara shares, “This friendship says to me how beautiful it is to meet someone at my age and immediately bond.” Eric adds, “We both enjoy making friends. It’s like a ray of sunshine.”

Residents from Atria Maplewood Place took a trip to the Museum of Science! They spent hours winding through exhibits on flora and fauna, the human body, and the elements; they saw it all!

"Several residents were still talking about how much fun they had and how much they learned," shares Paul, the son of memory care resident Peggy, who visited in the days following the trip. "The Museum of Science is a very special place to tour."

Sounds like a magical time!

We shared in good fortune and great food at our Taste of San Francisco events. Inspired by the flavors of San Fran's Chinatown, we immersed ourselves in the culture of the neighborhood by watching the Asian American classic film, The Joy Luck Club.

We can't wait to see – and taste – the cuisine from our destination next month!

He credits his long life to walking, eating healthy and enjoying life. And for Denver, enjoying life means cherishing the little things. "I like spending time outdoors, listening to music and being with friends and family," he shares.

Happy 90th birthday, Denver! We hope your special day was full of laughter and fun. 🥳

"As a server, I look forward to going to work every morning, and I take pride in providing meals to our residents," shares Rosie, a waitstaff team member at Atria Park of Vintage Hills. "I also enjoy talking with the residents, discussing things like their past careers and family. The residents love talking about their lives. Their faces light right up."

Hospitality team members like Rosie are so important in providing a great experience for residents. "I love when residents come to the door to the kitchen to say thank you and goodbye," Rosie adds. "It's a nice feeling to know that I was able to provide an enjoyable dining experience for the residents. Actually, it doesn't even feel like work. It feels like family."

Happy National Hospitality Workers Day and thank you, Rosie, for all you do to give our residents amazing experiences!

Last Saturday night, the residents were thrilled to witness a 5-3 victory by the Nanaimo Clippers while attending the game in the VIP Suite! We enjoyed the warmth and comfort of the suite, along with pizza, beverages, and a special visit from the Clippers SuperFan.

A big thank you to our Bus Driver of the Year, D'Arcy, for taking time away from his family to make this wonderful evening happen for our residents. Go Clippers!

The little bake sale that DID!

We are deeply grateful to everyone who helped make our recent sale such a meaningful success. Thanks to the incredible generosity of our residents, their families, and the wider community, we raised over $700 in support of an initiative that truly matters. This achievement would not have been possible without your kindness, encouragement, and belief in the cause.

Every contribution—whether through purchasing items, donating, or simply spreading the word—brings us one step closer to our shared goal: supporting a seniors-only emergency room. Our seniors deserve care that is compassionate, specialized, and designed with their unique needs in mind. Making this vision a reality will be our focus throughout the year.

This sale is just the beginning. We have several fundraising events planned in the months ahead and will continue to create opportunities for our community to come together in support of this important cause. For those who wish to contribute at any time, donations are always welcome and deeply appreciated.

We look forward to sharing updates on our progress and celebrating what we can accomplish together. Thank you for standing with us, for caring so deeply about our seniors, and for helping turn compassion into action.

And for those wondering why there are no photos to share—thanks to your incredible support, we sold out in just 22 minutes. Sometimes the best pictures are the ones that live in the moment

This cause is close to the heart, because our seniors deserve care that is compassionate, dignified, and designed with their unique needs in mind, especially in moments of vulnerability and crisis.

By taking part in this sale, you are helping create a safer, more understanding emergency experience for the people who paved the way for us. Every contribution, no matter the size, helps ensure our seniors receive the respect, patience, and specialized care they deserve when they need it most. Each box is $10.00.

There are many ways to be involved. Stop by the sale and treat yourself to as many sweet treats as you’d like, donate items to be sold, or drop off a cash donation. Each act of generosity directly supports this vital initiative and makes a real difference in the lives of seniors and their families.

Thank you for helping us turn compassion into action and for standing behind a cause that truly matters. Together, we can create change that will be felt for generations to come.
