Our Nakhatanda program continues to support African and Indigenous seniors in Greater Vancouver through culturally grounded activities and intergenerational connections.
The Nakhatanda program β meaning "we care" in Swahili β continues to be a cornerstone of our work with senior community members. This year, we have expanded our programming to include more cultural activities, language preservation workshops, and intergenerational storytelling sessions.
Through Nakhatanda, elders share their wisdom and life experiences with younger generations, while receiving the support and connection they need to thrive. It is a beautiful exchange that strengthens our entire community fabric.
