We believe in the power of connection to enrich the lives of older adults. Through our Shannex Cares Community Spirit Grants, we extend the reach of community organizations who share our commitment to helping older adults in focus areas of wellness, active living, and social connections. The Upper Hammonds Plains Community Development Association (UHPCDA) is one of these exceptional groups, offering programs like exercise sessions, educational workshops, and even trips to help reduce social isolation for older adults. Recently, they enjoyed Controlled Damage \u2013 The Viola Desmond Story with support from our grant, an experience that brought courage and resilience to life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We\u2019re proud to support the UHPCDA and other groups in creating meaningful opportunities for older adults. It\u2019s these kinds of moments that drive us to continue our work, helping older adults build connections and enjoy the enriching experiences they deserve.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
