Delmanor Glen Abbey Residents Show Us Their Hearts!

Delmanor Glen Abbey Celebrated Heart Month with two events that enabled the seniors to give back to the community and have lots of fun along the way.  

Between the complimentary blood pressure clinic and cookie gram sales, participants were able to raise $329 dollars for Heart & Stroke research.  The retirement community is working towards their goal of $1,000 when the Heart & Stroke fund raising campaign is completed with their Big Bike Event.

Along with the Heart & Stroke Foundation fundraisers, Glen Abbey residents have been busy over the past 6 months raising funds for the Alzheimer Society of Canada.  This campaign was wrapped up with a Dark Chocolate and Red Wine Seminar that was enjoyed by residents, family members and friends.  A presentation by Karen Robins was the last of a 5 part series on The Healthy Brain.  Karen was overjoyed at the completion of her session when she was presented with a donation of $1,000.
