Cedar Crest Hosts Passion Walk on Campus
Residents and staff walk to raise money for their favorite charity.
On September 7, Cedar Crest, an Erickson Living retirement community in Pompton Plains, New Jersey, hosted a Passion Walk on campus. More than 30 employees and residents participated in the special event to support a charity of their choice.
The event included a half-mile walk on campus as well as an "Awareness Health Fair" featuring music, raffles, chair massages, games, aromatherapy, coloring station, and memory quilt table where people decorated a quilt square to pay tribute to a friend or family member. The quilt will be displayed on campus throughout the month.
All proceeds from the walk will be donated to local charitable organizations including the American Cancer Society and Alzheimer’s New Jersey.
