Calgary Seniors’ Resource Society provides a depth of support that creates meaningful and effective change in the overall well-being and quality of life for seniors in our city. For over 20 years, Calgary Seniors has been providing much needed and innovative services that prevent and reduce social isolation, and support seniors to live independently to the greatest extent possible.

📞 Sometimes a simple phone call can make all the difference.

Meet Hannah and learn about our Phone Friends program, where volunteers connect with older adults through regular friendly phone calls.

These conversations help reduce isolation, build meaningful connections, and give seniors something to look forward to each week. For many participants, it’s not just a phone call—it’s a friendship.

If you’ve been thinking about volunteering but aren’t sure where to start, Phone Friends is a great introduction. A small commitment of your time can have a big impact on someone’s day.

💙 Connection starts with a conversation.
Interested in becoming a Phone Friend? We’d love to hear from you.

Not sure where to start? We’re here to help. 💙

Meet Haley, one of our Senior System Navigators.
Sometimes seniors connect with us through a referral, but often it’s much simpler than that. They give us a call, stop by our office, or find us through a conversation with someone they trust.

Our Senior System Navigators help older adults navigate available resources, explore options, and overcome barriers that may be impacting their well-being. Through office visits and short-term support, they work alongside seniors to connect them with services, programs, and community supports that can make everyday life easier.

No question is too small. If you’re not sure where to turn, we’re a great place to start.

☎️ Reach out to learn more about Senior System Navigation. Our contact information is in our bio ❤

Calgary, let's talk weekend plans. ☁️ It's been a smoky week, but Sunday's looking like the perfect excuse to head indoors and shop local instead.

Swing by The Barn Artisan Market Calgary this Sunday, July 26 (11am–4pm, at the historic Shawnessy Barn) and look for our very own volunteer, Sophie, who'll be there selling her beautiful handmade cards! Every card is crafted with care, and every purchase helps support the work we do for older adults right here in Calgary.

 

And if you're a business or individual looking for a fun way to give back, we'd love to chat. Reach out to [email protected] to learn how we can work together to support seniors in our community.

See you Sunday! 🧡

💌 Have you heard? A simple card can brighten someone’s whole week.

What started as a small volunteer initiative has grown into a meaningful way to connect with older adults in our community. Through Cheer Mail, volunteers send thoughtful cards and messages to seniors, bringing a little joy to their mailbox and a reminder that someone is thinking of them.

And lately, we’ve been receiving something special in return. 💕

Seniors are sending their own cards back to us, sharing stories, gratitude, and just how much these messages mean to them. It’s a beautiful reminder that connection doesn’t have to be complicated. Sometimes it starts with a handwritten note.

✨ Looking for a simple way to make a difference? Apply to become a Cheer Mail volunteer and help spread kindness, one card at a time. Visit calgaryseniors.org to learn more.

Aging in place doesn’t mean aging alone. 💛

Through our In Place program, older adults can access support, guidance, and connections that help them navigate life’s changes while staying engaged in the community they call home.

💡 Have you heard? Calgary Seniors offers a range of programs designed to support older adults at every stage of aging.

Have you heard? A shopping trip can mean so much more than groceries. 🛒💙

Our Shopping Companion volunteers help older adults stay independent while building meaningful connections along the way. What starts as practical support often grows into friendship, conversation, and something both people look forward to each week.

We are pleased to share Calgary Seniors’ new whitepaper, Beyond the Referral: Strengthening Community Systems that Support Aging Well.
This paper introduces our Connected Community Model, a practical framework for understanding how community participation, programs, systems, and culture work together to support healthy aging.

It also names an important challenge: the Community Support Gap.

Across health and social systems, there is growing attention on referral pathways, navigation, and social prescribing. These efforts are important. But referrals only work when the community supports people are referred into are strong, stable, and adequately resourced.

At Calgary Seniors, we believe healthy aging requires investment in the full ecosystem of support: volunteers, neighbours, practical programs, operational capacity, and a culture that encourages people to care for one another.

We invite funders, partners, policymakers, donors, and community leaders to read the paper and join the conversation about strengthening the community wellbeing infrastructure that helps older adults remain connected, supported, and well at home.
