Residents Craft Chair Using Wood From Campus Tree

You may have seen two of our resident woodworkers in The Highlands at Pittsford ads currently running online and on television.

Well, we thought you might enjoy seeing some of their work!

A few months ago, Bob and Harry made this double-seated garden chair. The frame was constructed using wood that came from a tree right here on The Highlands at Pittsford campus.

The Season of Giving

Purpose

This week, our Community Outreach Committee led a fundraiser for Saint’s Place, a charity based in Pittsford that assists refugee families in need. Our fundraiser was for a family from Afghanistan.

We are so happy to have raised $1,485 which allowed us to get everything on our family’s wish list, and much more!

We also conducted a children’s sock drive.

Saint’s Place has served over 16,000 refugees since it was founded in 1998.
