HIV & AIDs
We need to preserve our elderly by protecting and promoting their well being. The old are the untapped gold in our communities, they are the keepers of knowledge and life experience, they are the protectors of our homes when we the youth are away making ends meet and exploring the universe. Our programs protect and preserve the elderly for us.
We provide programs to promote well-being, social engagement, and overall quality of life. Here are some programs;
1. Technology Workshops:
We provide workshops on basic computer skills, internet usage, and smartphone applications. We teach them how to connect with family and friends through social media or video calls.
2. Arts and Crafts Sessions:
We host arts and crafts classes where seniors can engage in creative activities like painting, pottery, or knitting. We encourage them to showcase their creations in a community art exhibition.
3. Book Clubs
We started book clubs where seniors can gather to discuss and share their thoughts on various books. We provide a comfortable space for reading and socializing.
4. Cooking Classes
Organize cooking classes focusing on traditional foods. We encourage social interaction during meal preparation and shared meals.

We offer music therapy sessions or musical events, which can have positive effects on mood and memory. We created choirs and musical groups within communities.

We host informational sessions on topics relevant to seniors, such as financial planning, health, and legal matters. We invite guest speakers or professionals in the fields from which the topics originate.
