This Spring, The Crossings hosted a Food Drive to benefit the residents of Bayview and Oakview, MRC’s Affordable Housing communities in La Porte. The effort began years ago, now growing to become a highly anticipated effort each year. The Crossings sought to collect canned food and other non-perishable food items, along with toiletries and personal care items.
Alvarado, who worked in restaurants for many years, said he chose to work at The Crossings as a way of giving back through his culinary talents. “I love to cook, and I think for people who need a puree, being able to use my skills to brighten their dining experience is what it’s all about,” he said.
It wasn’t until George moved in to The Crossings in 2024 that he met his new neighbor and fellow alum, Larry. “Shortly after George moved in, they passed in the hall and George noticed Larry’s Jackrabbit shirt, asked where he got it, and a friendship was born,” recalled Debbie Zienty, Sales and Marketing Director.
Several contributors at The Crossings transformed an otherwise drab hallway into something beyond special. Along one side of this walkway you’ll find a multitude of photos of service men and women, each members of The Crossings family, past and present, who have served in the armed forces, along with photos of elected officials, both at a state and federal level.
