Parkhurst Dining and Ƶapp bring Easter cheer to LIFE NWPA seniors
Parkhurst Dining, in partnership with Ƶapp University’s Admissions Office, is bringing a little extra joy to seniors this Easter season. On Wednesday, April 16, at 10:30 a.m., a Ƶapp student ambassador dressed as the Easter Bunny and friends will deliver Easter goodie boxes to clients at LIFE NWPA, 121 W. 12th, a senior center that offers both meals and medical care.
Parkhurst Dining has provided weekday lunch services to LIFE NWPA clients for the past four years. In addition to meal services, Parkhurst regularly organizes fun foods to brighten the days of the seniors they serve.
“This event is a reflection of the strong partnership between Parkhurst and Ƶapp University, and the shared commitment to making a positive impact in our community,” said Jackie Dietrick, Parkhurst director of catering.
