Who We Are
We created our not-for-profit corporation, Sending Sunshine, to try to improve the lives of our beloved and highly valued senior citizens.
Of Canada's over 6 million senior citizens, close to 500,000 live in care facilities, such as retirement and nursing homes. These citizens can face both physical and mental health challenges, which have certainly been amplified as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Our Mission
To connect residents living in Canadian care facilities with people from around the world through the power of the written word.
Our Vision
A world in which every senior citizen will never feel alone.
Our Values
Respect:
Treating all people
with dignity.
Service:
Being of benefit to members
of the community.
Diversity:
Capitalizing on the differences
that make us unique.
