Adopt a Grandparent program spreads smiles at senior care facilities

The holiday season can be one of the happiest times of year for many, but for the elderly in senior living facilities, it can also feel like the loneliest.

 

Knowing even the smallest touches matter, Bethany Tucker-Beron, sales representative for Nu Skin, wants those residents to feel a small touch of kindness as she took  on the 'Adopt a Grandparent' program for the first time, this year. The program provides a chance to collect donations and provide professional skin care products and fuzzy warm socks to residents at nursing care facilities.

 

Choosing Lake City Place in Warsaw and The Whitlock in Bremen, Bethany said she purposely chose smaller facilities. She hopes to expand the project even more next year, possibly including facilities in Fulton County. 

 

 

 

 

 

Making her delivery rounds at Lake City Place earlier this week, her final deliveries will be made to The Whitlock sometime before Christmas.

 

With a goal of delivering to all 56 residents in both facilities, Bethany still has a little more than 20 residents still needed sponsored, but it's not too late to show some Christmas love. Those interested in donating can contact Bethany at 574-268-7401
