Silver Connect
Bringing seniors and youth to learn, bond, and do good together.
About this Initiative
Singapore is rapidly aging, and increasingly, more seniors will live alone. We engage seniors through our various initiatives to:
- Keep them active and engaged
- Allow for intergenerational learning and bonding
- Learn new skills
What We Do
Hands-on tactile sessions
We organize intergenerational workshops that include art, storytelling, games, and more. These are designed to encourage active participation from both seniors and youth.
Shared Learning Experiences
Our sessions bring seniors and young participants together to share life skills, stories, and perspectives, fostering mutual respect and understanding.
Building Connections
Through fun and meaningful engagements, we create lasting memories and build a strong sense of community across generations.
