Improving the lives of seniors

Team members can nominate groups, individuals, or organizations considered strong “Elder Allies” in our communities to receive a donation of up to $1,000.

These nominations will be curated into a short list for team members to vote on the successful donation recipient. We aim to award a donation to a successful recipient in each province we serve (Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, and Ontario) up to four times a year.

Meet the Great People Give Recipients

We’re thrilled to honour more Elder Allies with the latest recipients of our Great People Give donations.

Inspired by our Great People, these donations create meaningful opportunities to recognize elders for their wisdom and talents.

In Winter 2025, we supported three organizations:
