We love the opportunity for people of different generations to interact and have a fun time! Join us for a very special trick-or-treating event at St. John’s on the Lake, a nursing and retirement home located on the upper east side of Milwaukee.
Activities
Caregivers and children will trick or treat throughout the retirement facility where residents will be gathered. Please have your child wear a costume (adults are welcome to dress up too!) and bring a bag for candy collection. Families will have the opportunity to chat and get to know our grandfriends at St. John’s on the Lake.
Impact
Allow children to interact freely with the residents. By simply showing their unique personalities, our children will bring joy and smiles to the residents and learn how friends can be made at any age!

Our Partner
Our partnership with Saint John’s began many years ago with an invitation to attend their trick-or-treat event, and it was the very first event that Kids Impact Community took part in. Our partnership together has strengthened through our monthly intergenerational playgroups over the years. Saint John’s on the Lake residents are offered a person-centered philosophy and programming designed to meet the needs of the whole person – emotional, environmental, intellectual, occupational, physical, and social. Learn more at their website.
