Society Events

SENIOR LINK INDEPENDENT LIVING SOCIETY

We are a non-profit society that has over two hundred members, most of whom live in Richmond, British Columbia.

The Senior Link is a volunteer organization that draws from local communities. We are a registered non-profit society, run by an elected board who are assisted by capable volunteers.

We believe that Seniors linked with other Seniors create positive communities where everyone benefits. Our society's mandate is to link seniors to services and reach isolated seniors who, for health or other preferences, do not get involved in existing community programs.

Membership Dues

Members are asked to pay an annual membership fee of $25.00

This fee covers the costs of maintaining the society and the costs of printing and distributing the bi-monthly newsletter.

Social events are funded by charging visitors an event fee, by canvassing local businesses for event contributions, and by the selfless donation of time by the society's volunteers.
