Retain and Expand Programs for Seniors

Renting facilities is an every increasing cost. Proceeds from this auction will help us to retain and expand the programs we offer - which are based upon the funds we have to rent the Ken Ross Field Hosue.

Seniors in Barrhaven are an ever increasing proportion of the community's population. There is no community hall or cultural centre in this community, thus making it very difficult for seniors to find opportunities to interact with peers, and/or help to counteract social isolation.

To help relieve this situation, we rent rooms in the community so that seniors can organize programs that older adults can access: health and safety presentations; discussion groups; and playing a wide variety of games.

The "Barrhaven Seniors' Council" is a Registered Charity:
# 72092 5924 RR0001

Our charitable purposes are:

a) To relieve conditions attributable to being aged by providing social and recreational activities to aged persons experiencing loneliness and isolation, decreased physical strength and motor skills, and other physical and mental ailments; and

b) To undertake activities ancillary and incidental to the attainment of the above charitable purpose.
