Seniors’ Program – Abahetsi (“The Wise Ones”)
Honouring Wisdom, Celebrating Legacy
Reconnecting Elders With Community and Purpose
Overview:
Elders are keepers of history, language, and wisdom. In a new land, many feel isolated. Abahetsi ensures they are respected, valued, and engaged in meaningful ways.
What We Offer:
• Storytelling events where elders share memories, teachings, and cultural wisdom.
• Social and cultural gatherings to reduce loneliness and promote joy.
• Intergenerational programs linking seniors with youth to pass down traditions and life lessons.
• Vision for a Cultural Complex: A future home for heritage archives, a senior lounge, and cultural exhibits.
Our Goal:
To honor our elders, preserve their legacy, and keep them connected to community life.
