Senior Star Marks 50 Years and Earns FORTUNE Best Workplace Recognition

Milestone celebration honors the people and everyday moments that have shaped five decades of Senior Star culture

TULSA, Okla., Oct. 14, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- As Senior Star celebrates its 50th anniversary, the family-owned senior living organization is marking the milestone with national recognition that reflects what has shaped its story for five decades: its people and culture.

Senior Star has been named a 2026 FORTUNE Best Workplace in Aging Services™, recognition based on feedback from 99% of the associates who experience its workplace culture every day.

The recognition was shared with nearly 900 associates during Senior Star's companywide 50th anniversary celebration on October 13. The event centered on gratitude for the people who have shaped the organization across generations and introduced Moment Makers, the next chapter of Senior Star's longstanding Difference Makers tradition.

"As CEO of Senior Star at this milestone I'm deeply humbled because this company has always been about people," said Anja Rogers, CEO. "Our culture is our values in action. Its heartbeat lives in each associate--in how we serve one another, our seniors and their families, and in the personalized moments that help people feel known, valued and cared for."

That servant-leader mindset is the idea behind Moment Makers: recognizing the everyday choices and personal acts of service that become someone's experience of Senior Star. "This FORTUNE recognition is meaningful because it reflects the culture our associates create every day," Rogers said. "As we look to our next 50 years, Moment Makers gives us a way to name and celebrate that service, one meaningful moment at a time."

Throughout its anniversary year, Senior Star is collecting and celebrating stories from associates, seniors, families and others who have been part of its first 50 years, while looking ahead to the culture and experiences that will shape the next 50.
