Ives Hill Retirement Community

Our residents loved our festive snowmen sundaes, made with all sorts of delicious candy!

Help us #BringTheJoy to our residents this holiday season by sending in a video! Our residents aren’t able to see school performances or hear church choirs in person, so this year, we’re sending it to them! Whether it’s of you and your family singing or playing an instrument, reading a Christmas story, or just wishing them a Merry Christmas, we want to hear from you! Your act of holiday cheer will be seen by hundreds of residents throughout the month of December. Send your video to us by Monday, December 14 at heritage1886.org/joy-video!

Thank you so much to PJ Banazek and Morgia Wealth Management for donating this beautiful tree! These festive decorations help #BringTheJoy to our residents at The Lodge every day!

Many enriched housing communities in New York State continue to struggle under current state guidelines and restrictions around family visitation. We are encouraging resident family members to advocate with us for a more reasonable, thoughtful approach to holiday visitation. Join us in advocating for reasonable visitation policies so that you can see your loved one more often and connect through in-person visitation. We invite you to use the call script, email, and letter template on our website in the link below to be sent to New York State. www.iveshillretirement.org/advocacy

Join us for this week’s Worship Wednesday as Chaplain Larry, Heritage Senior Chaplain, shares words of encouragement during this season! This week’s theme is Imperfect Christmas.
