📣 Happy National Seniors Day! 📣
Today we celebrate the incredible contributions of older adults to our families and communities, and reflect on how we can better support them. ❤️
At WSNCC, seniors programming is one of the things we’re most proud of. As a multi-service community agency, we offer fitness classes, wellness workshops, cultural celebrations, congregate dining, organized trips, and so much more, all designed to keep West Scarborough seniors active, connected, and fulfilled.
We’re incredibly grateful to share that Entente Education Canada’s District 24 Scarborough and East York has awarded a $4,000 grant to bring the Silver Strokes creative workshops program to our Centre! Through Silver Strokes, seniors come together for hands-on creative sessions in painting, macramé, card-making, rug-hooking, and more, with a public exhibition to showcase their work at the end of the program.

Today is the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation and Orange Shirt Day.
September 30th is a day to honour Residential School Survivors, their families, and the children who never returned home. The orange shirt is a symbol of the culture, freedom, and self-esteem that so many Indigenous children had taken from them.
We encourage our community to take time to learn and reflect on the ongoing impacts of Canada’s Residential School system and what we can all do to contribute to healing and change.
Every Child Matters. 🟠
