VERO BEACH, Fla., Oct. 25, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Residents, family members and associates of Watercrest Spanish Springs Assisted Living and Memory Care and Watercrest Buena Vista Senior Living partnered to represent Watercrest Senior Living and support the 2024 Walk to End Alzheimer's at The Villages Polo Club. 

The Watercrest teams walked at the event, supported community partners, and took part in the meaningful Promise Garden Ceremony, representing yellow, purple, and orange flowers to honor shared connections to the cause.

The Alzheimer's Association Walk to End Alzheimer's® is the world's largest fundraiser for Alzheimer's care, support and research and is held annually in more than 600 communities nationwide.
