The Power of One: Giving Thanks for Community Members Who Share Their Gifts
We’re celebrating how one person’s gifts can make a big difference. For years, Mrs. Irma Knight-Gumbs has shared her passion for dental care with our residents, offering education, support, and essential supplies. Her kindness shows how a single act of giving can strengthen an entire community.
Sobriety Gives Us Back What Matters Most
Sobriety gives us the priceless ability to truly show up for the people we love. Inspired by Colin Farrell’s heartfelt reflection on how recovery allows him to be present for his son who lives with Angelman Syndrome, we explore how sobriety restores connection, clarity, and purpose. This season, we’re reflecting on the gift of being present — and why that’s something to be truly thankful for.
