Great Pay. Great benefits. Great People.
A deep and abiding wish to make a difference in the com- munity is a shared ethic of both Tory Rudolph a young woman from Franklin, New Hampshire, and the newly expanded senior living community – Peabody Place, also in Franklin.
Each year, Peabody Place awards a scholarship to a student whose academic leanings mir- ror community and the health- care field in general. With the launching of their fundraising arm, the Peabody Place Auxil- iary, the scholarship award was heightened to $500 this year; Ms. Rudolph is the lucky recipient for 2023 although the decision to award her this financial gift took place last year but encountered delays due to Covid 19 pandemic restrictions.
Currently enrolled at NHTI, Tory is taking classes that will lead her to a full elementary school teacher certification. To- ry’s interest are diverse, motor- cycle riding in warm weather, coaching budding ice skaters at the Everett Arena in Concord during the winter, and the annual
summer trip to visit extended family in Northern Ireland.
Peabody Place supports the Eden Philosophy whereby se- niors flourish in a supportive en- vironment that offers meaningful connections to animals and the environment, music and nature, and the opportunity to enjoy mu- tually interesting activities with younger generations. With a lit- tle luck and planning they look forward to Tory bringing the children in her future classes to meet the residents who call Pea- body Place ‘home’. The vibrant elder community that offers both Assisted and Independent living, along with a safe and homelike memory care neighborhood, supports community initiatives such as the student scholarship award, Choose Franklin Com- munity Day, Soupfest, the Mom Prom, and many other events and gatherings that promote a strong community in the Three Rivers city. Volunteers are wel- come and actively encouraged to get involved in all that Peabody Place has to offer. For more infor- mation go to www.peabody.place
