Serve the City Spruces Up Gardens at Spratley
On March 13, Serve the City (STC), in partnership
with Summit Christian Academy, organized a
volunteer service project at Spratley House.
Student volunteers from middle and high school,
along with adult participants, revitalized the
garden areas by removing the existing ground-
level garden and installing new raised garden
beds to improve accessibility and ease of
maintenance for residents. The team also cleaned
and enhanced the garden space at the main
entrance. The event was well received, and
participating students expressed enthusiasm for
volunteering and supporting the community.
Intimate Discussion About Hospice and
Home Health
Virginia Health Services (VHS) partnered in March to
host informational sessions about hospice and home
health in small, comfortable settings at Spratley
House and Pinecroft. Facilitators spoke about what
hospice care is, how it can help and addressed
common myths. They also educated participants on
why home health supports independence.
Residents expressed being glad to have been offered
this opportunity.
