❤️ A Valentine’s Day to Remember

Valentine’s Day was filled with warmth, connection and meaningful moments during a themed photo event for residents at St. Andrew's Village, Indiana, PA

Designed to help each participant feel celebrated, the photo shoot featured Valentine’s décor, crowns and thoughtful styling. Residents enjoyed the opportunity to dress up, share smiles and create memories with friends and team members.

Three dedicated aides volunteered their time on their day off to assist with hair, costumes and make-up, helping every resident feel confident and comfortable. The talented photographer donated their time to capture these heartfelt moments. A Social Services team member created hand-crafted crowns, worn throughout the celebration, adding a festive touch.

A special thank you to Community Life Coordinator Breanna, whose leadership, creativity and enthusiasm brought this event to life and made it enjoyable for everyone who participated.

May these photos make your hearts sing 💕 🎶

Today we honor the life, work, and dreams of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
