VERO BEACH, Fla., Dec. 31, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- As 2020 came to an end, the residents and associates of Watercrest Columbia Assisted Living and Memory Care focused their attention on the needs of their neighboring community in Columbia, SC. The Watercrest Columbia team partnered with Heart of Hospice to host a successful fundraising event, collecting over 150 pounds of food to donate to Harvest Hope Food Bank.
"Our community of residents and associates is like a family," says Yvette Pearson, Community Relations Director of Watercrest Columbia.

As part of their "Common Unity" initiative, the Watercrest Columbia team is committed to positively influencing the needs in their hometown, while supporting residents in staying connected in meaningful ways.
