🌟 Meet Chuck: From Boy Scout Scrapbooks to National Geographic! 📸 Chuck's journey in photography began early as his Boy Scout troop's official photographer. Despite struggles in high school chemistry, a deal with his teacher (develop film for a C) set Chuck on a path that led to an illustrious career. After a brief stint at El Camino College, an opportunity to apprentice under a WWII Marine Combat photographer launched his professional journey. For 23 years, Chuck captured the world for National Geographic, working with top photographers and leading as the Director of Photography for World Magazine. From the bustling streets of Japan to the serene landscapes of Mexico, Chuck's lens has seen it all. Now in Arizona, he continues to find beauty in flowers and birds, proving that adventure never truly ends.

Dog Balm. It’s a thing! Rigden Farm Senior Living residents have been making Pooches and Smooches Paw Balm to help furry friends dealing with dry noses and rough paws. Residents Mary and Vann, taught us how it’s made while leading an insightful discussion about the benefits for the pets we love so much. The program is a collaborative endeavor stemming from their partnership with All Aboard Animal Rescue. Through this initiative, Rigden residents actively contribute to a noble cause by doing something actionable. Items created are available for a donation with all proceeds directed toward supporting the shelter's vital efforts. Beyond the craft itself, this event underscored the profound impact our work has on residents' lives. It served as a poignant reminder of our commitment to enhancing their well-being through meaningful engagement and community involvement. We extend our gratitude to Mary, Vann, and all residents involved for their dedication and inspiration. Together we continue to exemplify our corporate ethos of fostering enriching experiences and making a positive difference in our communities. #CorporateResponsibility #CommunityEngagement #SeniorLiving
