2023 Fall Fest

With Meijer

November 2023

This year we participated in the first annual Fall Fest with Meijer of Cascade! The amazing volunteers and Meijer Team Members created and provided outstanding sensory activities to help our residents fully participate in the joys of the harvest season, like smelling and tasting different apples, playing in sensory bins, and carving pumpkins!

THANK YOU MEIJER!

The Studio Workshop

June 2018

Cascade Location

Kelly Finger-McNeela's "Kelly's Place" provides generous donation to Olivia's Gift

Kelly Finger-McNeela had multiple sclerosis and faced life in a nursing home. She dreamed of building something better – a home she would call Kelly’s Place – where she could have the assistance she needed with daily activities in a setting that was more like a home, among peers of a similar age. Kelly was inspired by Olivia’s Gift and would be proud of this partnership to bring a creative space and gardens to the residence. Kelly has found her place!

In 2018, Olivia’s Gift partnered with the family of Kelly Finger-McNeela to complete construction of the studio Workshop! This is a space that offers our residents and community new opportunities to create art, cook, garden and explore their creativity in a beautiful and accessible environment.
