Brookdale senior living communities in 15 states are giving back to their local communities by delivering Thanksgiving meals to seniors in their areas. Associates at more than 200 Brookdale senior living communities are working closely with local community partners to identify seniors who live alone or otherwise would not receive a traditional Thanksgiving dinner this year.
