Local Community Invited to a Free Family-Friendly Carnival at the YMCA
BENBROOK, Texas–(BUSINESS WIRE)–#comfortkeepers–Comfort Keepers®, a leading provider of uplifting in-home care for seniors and veterans, is proud to celebrate its 7th Annual National Day of Joy on June 25, 2025. Established to shine a light on the transformative power of caregiving, this annual celebration takes place on the last Wednesday in June every year.
For 20 years, Comfort Keepers of Fort Worth has served Tarrant & Parker counties empowering older adults to thrive, regardless of age or health challenges. The National Day of Joy is designed to encourage seniors to embrace life’s everyday moments, remain active, and pursue their passions and interests. It also honors the compassionate caregivers who bring connection, purpose, and dignity to the lives of those they serve.
To mark the occasion, Comfort Keepers of Fort Worth will host a free outdoor carnival for the entire community. Families, seniors, and caregivers are invited to enjoy food, games, and music at the Benbrook Community Center & YMCA (1899 Winscott Rd.) from 11:00 AM to 3:30 PM. The office team will have tents and water stations set up on the grass.
The National Day of Joy is being celebrated in over 50 Comfort Keepers locations nationwide, with a mix of in-person and virtual events designed to spread joy, raise awareness, and foster community connection, and also to inspire and nurture the caregivers who care for seniors.
“We see the positive impact caregiving has every day … how being a caregiver to a senior is one of the most rewarding experiences a person can have, it’s about building trust, understanding their needs, customizing a plan, forming connections, and bringing joy to someone’s life,” said Scott Van Duinen, owner of the agency that has four offices across the area. “On this National Day of Joy, we encourage the community to join us, come together, be grateful and celebrate the beauty and richness of life’s later chapters.”
