A resident stopped me today and simply said "thank you for all you did to make our holidays so special and so much fun this year. We appreciate all of the hard work."

There are so many "moving parts" that work together to make the "BCM Machine" work the way it does!

The staff working here day in and day out who do the little extras to make residents feel special.
The volunteers who care enough to take an hour here or there to visit and create with our residents to show them they matter.
The ReSale Shop Team who spend their time and talents running, organizing, merchandising and raising money for all the "extras" such as Holiday Parties.
Our donors. Whether its financially, items for the Friends of Barb City Manor Resale Shop, Bingo prizes or time, we appreciate you choosing Barb City Manor.

Happy New Year to all of you! And thank you from the bottom of our hearts for making all of this possible for these amazing seniors!

As our wise Director always says "we can't do what we do without all of you."
