At Silver Maples, weโ€™re proud to celebrate a tradition rooted in generosity and a deep commitment to education. It all began in 2010, when our Resident Council began discussing the idea of supporting employees through scholarships. Just one year later, the first $1,000 scholarship was awarded โ€” and what a journey itโ€™s been since! Fast forward to today; weโ€™re thrilled to share that we recently awarded an incredible $52,000 in scholarships to 16 deserving team members from our Culinary Services and Resident Care departments. Many of our recipients are continuing scholars, balancing their academic pursuits while providing outstanding care and service to our residents and families. ๐ŸŽ“๐Ÿ’œ Congratulations to our 2025 scholarship recipients! Your dedication and drive continue to inspire us. Since the program began, weโ€™ve awarded more than $260,000 in scholarships โ€” all thanks to the incredible generosity of our residents, families, and supporters. Want to help support the next generation of scholars? ๐Ÿ‘‰ Visit www.SilverMaples.org/donate to contribute to the Employee Scholarship Program. #InvestInPeople #EmployeeScholarships #TheSilverMaplesDifference

๐ŸŒธ Heartfelt thanks to our local Girl Scout troop and Chelsea Village Flowers for bringing a burst of springtime beauty to Silver Maples! ๐ŸŒธ

The Girl Scouts generously donated their time to create beautiful fresh flower arrangements with our residents, and the flowers were lovingly donated by the wonderful team at Chelsea Village Flowers.

Not only did our residents enjoy the laughter and connection shared during the activity, but theyโ€™re now enjoying the vibrant arrangements displayed throughout the Meadows.

It was a beautiful example of community, kindness, and creativity in full bloom!
A Special Thank You to Our Non-Resident Volunteers
Happy National Volunteer Appreciation Week!

This week, we're also shining a light on the incredible individuals outside our Silver Maples community who generously give their time, energy, and compassion โ€” especially to our residents in The Meadows Assisted Living.

From friendly visits and helping with activities, to spiritual enrichment, crafting, or just a listening ear โ€” your presence brings warmth, joy, and connection to those who benefit from it most. Whether you're a student, retiree, or community member, your commitment makes a meaningful difference in the lives of our residents and their families.

๐Ÿ‘ We see you.
๐Ÿ‘ We appreciate you.
๐Ÿ‘ And we are so grateful for the impact you make.

Thank you for helping us create a place where people feel cared for, valued, and connected. You are an important part of what makes Silver Maples shine.
Itโ€™s National Volunteer Appreciation Week!

At Silver Maples, volunteerism is at the heart of our vibrant community โ€” and our residents are leading the way.

Weโ€™re proud to share that 46% of our residents actively serve on at least one of our 15 resident committees, with a handful giving their time and talents to three or more! Whether itโ€™s shaping programs through the Activities and Art Committees, cultivating beauty in the Garden, welcoming new neighbors via Hospitality, enhancing campus sustainability on the Recycling Committee, curating great reads in the Library, or ensuring thoughtful dining experiences through the Food Committee โ€” their involvement is what makes Silver Maples truly special.

๐Ÿ’œ Volunteering fosters connection, purpose, and pride.
๐Ÿ’œ It builds a sense of ownership and belonging.
๐Ÿ’œ It turns neighbors into friends, and a campus into a community.

To all our resident volunteers โ€” thank you for your time, passion, and leadership. Your contributions inspire us every day and help make Silver Maples a more engaging, enriching, and fulfilling place to live.
