We consider serving seniors our calling, and as we have seen firsthand the traumatizing effects of Alzheimer’s disease and other forms of dementia, we join our parent company, MorningStar Senior Living in their efforts to end Alzheimer’s. Other charitable activities will also involve senior-focused, not-for-profit organizations.
Throughout the year, our community will participate in events that help to raise funds as well as awareness for Alzheimer’s disease, and it is our honor to partner with the Alzheimer’s Association as MorningStar does in every market we serve. Some of these activities will include getting a team together to participate in the “Walk to End Alzheimer’s” event, which takes every Fall. Participants will include staff members, residents, and family members and friends who will join the fun as walkers, runners, exhibitors, and sponsors. The 5K walk is the world's largest event and raises funds for Alzheimer's care, support and research. Each year our collective MorningStar communities have helped raise funds toward a cure.
MorningStar of Boulder also participants in the uplifting “The Longest Day” celebration, which takes place each year in June on the Summer Solstice. It too is an effort to raise funds and awareness of Alzheimer’s along with a way to honor those suffering from the disease. The day-long event is sure to be filled with fun and entertainment as we share a message of hope and compassion.
At MorningStar of Boulder, we represent the very best in senior retirement homes with a unique mission statement of “to honor, to serve, to invest.” We have built a foundation on honoring God, valuing all seniors and selecting staff with a felt calling to serve to create a true “home” for residents. Please schedule a visit to experience firsthand our beautiful assisted living and memory care community.
