In just 3 short weeks, the amazing crew of volunteers has transformed the entire LTC into a wonderful treasure hunt (rummage sale) I've had a delightful time chatting with volunteers and hearing their stories and witnessing their passion for this event. Everything has gone so smooth and I couldn't be happier in my first rummage sale experience at the LTC. Thanks to all the people who donate, work, volunteer shop and pray for this event. In awe at how this dedicated community comes together to put on such a fabulous fundraiser!

This topic explores strategies and interventions designed to support mental well-being of a seasoned adult, focusing on the importance of resilience, social support, and access to mental health services. It emphasizes the need for a holistic approach that incorporates physical health, social connectivity, and psychological interventions to combat loneliness, depression, and anxiety, which often intensify with age.
