Our business was founded with the singular purpose of challenging social isolation among seniors, especially those who have retired and now lack the daily buzz and interactions that they get at work. Loneliness will be reduced and mental health improved by becoming a part of our interactive community. Through our services, seniors connect with one another through identification of similar interests or valuable skills.
With 25 % of Canada’s population set to retire by the year 2030 and with 43% of seniors stating that they feel lonely on a daily basis, there’s a huge market opportunity for us to exploit.
As an online platform, we’re a constantly growing network that brings together those who value new connections but lack the opportunities or circle of friends to maintain regular in person interactions.
Our platform promotes platonic social interactions to challenge solitary, quiet days that often lead to loneliness or depression. We offer accessible connections based on shared interests or proximity. Through their own choice of simple activities, such as delivering a newspaper or learning how to use a smartphone, seniors and retirees will enjoy regular interaction with one another, even if it’s just for minutes in a day.
