How To Help ICAN Seniors Association
ICAN Seniors Association aims to change the lives of seniors by empowering them to learn, grow, and lead a quality life. We encourage them to learn ESL, financial literacy, mental health, technology, fitness exercises as well as take them on field trips and organize festive gatherings.
This helps us bring significant changes in our seniors' lives. You, too, can be part of this revolution by donating or contributing in any way you can. Here are some of the ways:
Volunteers
If you foresee a career in social work or at a non-profit organization, this is a perfect place for you to gain experience and bring change. You can take various classes for our seniors, including fitness, dance, technology, social media, knitting, English language, and more. Additionally, you can take care of their essential needs on field trips.
We also organize gatherings and plan games and activities. We offer many benefits to our volunteers, such as interview coaching, job referrals, job search workshops, and more.
Donors
The smallest of contributions can bring the greatest changes. You can donate money or gifts either monthly, weekly, yearly or just on a one-time basis. This will help us initiate more projects and programs and bring innovation in our ways, techniques and technology. This way, our seniors will get more resources and exposure, which is advantageous for their growth. Your contribution will help us organize programs such as:
Social activities
Nutrition and health courses
Seniors technology and communication
Outreach
Your donation can help us reach our maximum potential and bring valuable changes in our seniors' lives.
Businesses
Many companies believe in adding value to society by initiating change or contributing to change. We have partnerships with many companies who donate monthly, weekly and yearly to help us set a new standard for our events and innovations. As a company, you have many options for contribution, such as:
