Meet Our Harvest Raffle Winner

Congratulations to Anneloore, the grand prize winner of our Harvest Raffle! 

Anneloore was on a Menno Place bus trip to Stanley Park, enjoying a beautiful fall day, when she got the notification that she’d won the quilt. She says she was so excited, and so grateful, because she can’t remember the last time she won anything.

She’s a quilter herself, but she doesn’t have a quilt of her own at the moment, so she’s especially happy to have this one. She’d like to say a big thank you to the donor who gave the quilt.

Congratulations also to Bea, the winner of our Early Bird draw! She won dinner for four at Chef’s Plate – our elevated on-campus dining experience.

Thank you to everyone who bought a ticket. Proceeds from the raffle support recreation and chaplaincy for Independent Living residents here on campus, from group activities to spiritual care.

Congratulations again, Anneloore & Bea!

Happy National Seniors Day!

October 1, 2026 is National Seniors Day!

It’s a day for Canadians to recognize the profound contributions and value our seniors bring to our families, communities, and workplaces. It’s a day to celebrate our seniors and let them know how much we respect them and care for them.

Here are some things you can do for National Seniors Day:

  • Call a senior in your life and have a chat either by phone or video call
  • Send a card or postcard in the mail and surprise them with a letter
  • Visit that important senior in your life and go for a walk outside, play a game of cards, or have lunch together
  • Do something kind for a senior in your life. Do chores, run errands, or cook them dinner
  • Sit down with and look at old photos together and remember some good times!
  • Learn more about your family history. Speak with your elders and learn about their lives. Learn where you come from
  • Smile and just say “hi”

THANK YOU, to our seniors for your wisdom and love and for the impact you have in all of our lives!

How have seniors positively impacted your life this year?
