Seniors from Pinehaven Nursing Home brought the #ElderWisdom bench to the community. We are fighting ageism together by encouraging conversation while sharing the importance of seniors contributions to their community.

“Give credit to God! He gives me strength to carry on day by day and He has never left me and never forsaken me. Through life I have learned and have come to understand who God is and embrace His good morals to love and care for others. So I can live a good life the Lord would have me live.” -Lena
“There is nothing more important than love and loving others.” -Lena
June is #SeniorsMonth!
It was great to chat with Marienne and Lena in @UpTownWaterloo this afternoon, as part of @SchlegelVillage’s #ElderWisdom initiative.
We’re fortunate that our #KWawesome community is making inclusion a reality for folks of all ages. pic.twitter.com/i0bhaL0wDh
