Our Mission

Our mission is to connect student volunteers with nursing homes and senior living communities, creating vibrant and inclusive communities where the wisdom of our elders meets the energy of our youth. Through a diverse range of activities, including performances, art projects, crafts, and readings, we aim to:

  1. Celebrate Creativity and Talent: Through musical performances, dance routines, readings, art projects, other performances and creative crafts, we empower students to showcase their talents while bringing joy and entertainment to senior residents.

  2. Combat Social Isolation: We recognize the significant issue of social isolation among seniors and the need for companionship. By fostering connections of student volunteers with seniors, we strive to alleviate loneliness and create connections that brighten lives.

  3. Promote Mental and Emotional Well-being: We prioritize the mental and emotional well-being of both students and seniors. By engaging in social activities and meaningful interactions, we promote happiness, reduce stress, and create a sense of purpose.

  4. Strengthen Community Bonds: We believe that a strong community is built on inclusivity, compassion, and support. Student Senior Connections strengthens the bonds between generations, fostering a sense of belonging and unity within our communities.

Over 100 volunteer hours have been logged under our program in the first month since launching!
