Support us
Charity or business? Fun or help? Don't they go together? At our center, we fill seniors' diaries with a variety of activities while throwing a lifeline to the Senior Crisis Line. We sell Grandma's Socks, but all proceeds go back into activities for seniors. We may seem like a big company, but we are just a bunch of enthusiasts and projects that make a difference. Projects that help and need your support.
Partnership blossoms at every age.
And we're open to different forms of relationship

More about the projectVital magazine
Vital is a magazine that connects generations. Every three months we feature original topics and interviews with inspiring personalities. How do we connect the generations? By writing about old age - as it is and as it could be. And we write about it in a way that's entertaining for people in their thirties. Because old age is the only way we know how to live to an old age.
