2008 Minister's Seniors Service Award from the Province of Alberta

Linking Generations was honored to receive the 2008 Ministers Seniors Service Award from the Province of Alberta for  “Outstanding commitment to improve the quality of life for Alberta’s seniors."

What an incredible honor for a small community-based program ~ proof of the impact these amazing seniors and students are having on each other. 

The Award really belongs to the wonderful seniors and students who are sharing their hearts and making a difference in each other’s lives.  

 

 

Linking Generations is being recognized in the community as the organizations where ‘kind souls connect.’  Our students also volunteer for a number of activities outside the umbrella of Linking Generations.  They volunteer to provide entertainment for the seniors over the Christmas season; some of them continue to visit with their seniors over the summer break, and some students are volunteering on their own in our various senior’s care facilities.
