Kare Bears is pleased to announce that Dee-Dee Patrick, Director of Health and Wellness, received the Vitalant Impact Award at the Vitalant 46th Annual Luncheon on April 29th
The Impact Award is the most prestigious and difficult award to earn, signifying outstanding leadership in blood donation coordination. It was given to Dee-Dee for her work above and beyond to encourage participation in the PebbleCreek blood drives.
To quote Tom Choi , Vice President of the Vitalant, Southwest Division, “Each of us has the power to make an impact, no matter how big or small. Each donation has a memorable impact, not only for the patients we serve, but also for their family, friends and communities. Because of you, life doesn’t stop.”
Thanks to all of the PebbleCreek residents who continue to donate blood. You have truly made a difference in the lives of others .
On behalf of the Robson Reserve, Lance Williams, Executive Director, and Jill Romo, Marketing Director (pictured above at the Reserve), attended the breakfast buffet honoring the Kare Bears volunteers on April 16.
They gave Kare Bears a $1,500 donation for all that the organization does for the PebbleCreek community.
A brief talk about the Robson Reserve was presented along with an invitation to visit the facility. How lucky we are to have such a beautiful place so close to us if we find we need to downsize or go to an assisted living place.
Kare Bears , a registered 501c3 non-profit organization, is not affiliated or funded by the homeowner’s association and relies solely on contributions from the PebbleCreek residents or community donors. Every donation is tax deductible so please keep us in mind if you have used our services and were pleased or perhaps make a memorial donation in memory of a friend or loved one.
Again, the Kare Bears wish to thank Robson Reserve for helping to impact the quality of life for many residents here in PebbleCreek.

What is the Directory of Services you may ask? It is NOT to be confused with the Robson Source Book that you received in February. It is a compilation of resources provided by residents on the PebbleCreek egroups, speaker presentations, facilitators and members of support groups, Area Agency on Aging, lists from organizations specializing in seniors and resources obtained from research on the internet - and last but not least are the free services provided by Kare Bears.
Thanks again to Eddie Daurora, who designed the format so you can just click on a resource in the Table of Contents and will be taken directly there. You can also print your own copy if you choose to.
As you can see, the directory can be used by everyone; and. in some cases, even by family and friends all over the country. Check it out!
IMPORTANT: Each individual using the directory is responsible for vetting the resources.
Shown viewing the Directory are: Maureen Plate (2nd Vice President), Jan Stash (Office Volunteer Trainer), Cherrie Pierson (Office Volunteer).
