The Brookdale Employee Volunteer Connection will be kicking off the annual Giving Tree on November 14th. The Giving Tree benefits dozens of local families through the donation of gifts from the Brookdale community. If you would like to participate, stop by the Scroll and Pen Bookstore, Larrison Hall, Wall, Freehold or Hazlet to select a family from a tree. For more information, please contact Ann Marie Alfieri ext. 2314.
