Since 2006, Vivek Educational Foundation of Canada (Vivek Canada) has been committed to alleviating poverty and approaching rural development projects in India with an integrated and grass-roots approach.
Now, Vivek Canada has begun a local, free program for youth and seniors - Dawn to Dusk. This program promotes volunteerism and well being among South Asian youth and seniors through a series of events and workshops.
The Dawn to Dusk Program will pair seniors with youth through out the project, to build a sense of community and provide senior’s the ability to share their culture and knowledge with others.
Vivek Canada’s Dawn to Dusk Program will take place in Surrey and surrounding areas from Spring 2024 to Spring 2025. Program participants, South Asian seniors 55+ and youth (between the ages of 15-25) will meet once a month.
