Dear Friends of the DuPage Care Center,
For residents at the DuPage Care Center, meaningful activities are more than something to do. They stimulate the mind, foster connection, encourage independence, and create a sense of purpose and belonging.
A puzzle can exercise memory, gardening can spark conversation, and music can awaken cherished memories. Outings offer opportunities for independence and community connection, while celebrations and games bring laughter and something to look forward to.
This year, with the support of the DuPage Care Center Foundation, residents enjoyed a Kane County Cougars game, a magic show at the MAC, gardening with Master Gardeners, monthly musicians and entertainment, sensory food groups, ceramics, woodshop, weekly bingo, and outings to Fox Bowl and Cooper’s Corner.
These experiences bring joy, purpose, and meaningful moments to everyday life. With your support, we can continue creating these opportunities for residents throughout the coming year.
Thank you for investing in the well-being and quality of life of DuPage Care Center residents. Your generosity makes these meaningful experiences possible!
With gratitude,
Sara Neiman
Foundation Coordinator, DPCCF
