Puppy Love is in the Air at Watercrest Myrtle Beach Assisted Living and Memory Care

VERO BEACH, Fla., Feb. 15, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Residents at Watercrest Myrtle Beach Assisted Living and Memory Care were greeted by a surprise visitor this Valentine's Day. A sweet black lab-mix puppy named Eel offered warm hugs and puppy kisses at the Kind Keeper Animal Rescue Kissing Booth situated in the lobby of the luxury senior living community.

While Valentine's Day itself sparks love and giving for many, the team at Watercrest Senior Living Group championed an Acts of Kindness initiative for the entire month of February. In each Watercrest community, associates organized creative and thoughtful ways for assisted living and memory care residents to engage in acts of kindness within their community and beyond.

Watercrest Myrtle Beach is collecting donations of pet supplies all month to benefit Kind Keeper Animal Rescue. Kind Keeper is a non-profit, no-kill animal rescue organization in Myrtle Beach, where animals like Eel are cared for until they are placed in a forever home. On Thursday, February 23^rd, Watercrest Myrtle Beach will host a special event benefiting Kind Keeper Animal Rescue from 10am to 2pm.

"Our residents and associates love the opportunity to engage with their local community, and to do good deeds which support organizations like Kind Keeper," says Hunter Weaver, Executive Director of Watercrest Myrtle Beach. "The magical moments of our seniors smiling from puppy kisses is just one example of how small acts can spark joy and establish purpose for our residents and associates."

Watercrest is committed to positively influencing the needs of our hometowns and keeping seniors connected in meaningful ways by driving Common Unity initiatives, such as February's Acts of Kindness.
