"These awards validate our commitment to creating content that builds lasting relationships with audiences through authentic storytelling," said David Cygan, Chief Marketing Officer at Brookdale.

We're honored to see our residents' experiences recognized alongside work from some of the world's leading brands and media organizations."

The recognition reflects Brookdale's long-term strategy of building audience engagement through meaningful content that informs, inspires, and creates value well beyond a traditional advertising campaign.

Make it Mine was recognized for its authentic, resident-centered storytelling. The series follows Brookdale residents as they partner with professional interior designers to transform their senior living spaces into personalized homes in just one day. It's designed to showcase how personal spaces can reflect individual identity, while highlighting the meaningful experiences and connections that define life at Brookdale communities.
