July Joy: Fun-Filled Activities and Celebrations at Juniper Village at Paramus!

Juniper Village at Paramus, a premier assisted living community, located in Bergen County, NJ, spent the month of July reveling in a series of heartwarming and engaging activities. The vibrant Juniper community is known for its dedication to creating enriching experiences for its residents, and July was no exception.

Kicking off the month with a spirit of volunteering, Juniper Village rallied their wonderful residents, staff, and neighbors throughout July to donate essential items for local students preparing for the new school year. Embracing the spirit of giving, Juniper hosted a “Pasta with a Purpose” event, sending home pasta with those who donated as a heartfelt thank you. All donations were delivered to Oasis – Haven for Women and Children in Paterson, NJ. Generous contributions included pencils, pens, erasers, highlighters, markers, notebooks, folders, and backpacks, ensuring students step into the classroom with confidence!

Sparking intergenerational conversations, Konnekt Global, a youth-run nonprofit organization spent a heartwarming afternoon with residents. Together, they made cards, played games, and shared stories, creating cherished memories.
