The Top 7 Over 70™ organization is growing every year. Started in Calgary, new chapters have already launched in other parts of Alberta. The newest chapter is scheduled to launch very soon in the Maritimes and expressions of interest have been arriving from other parts of Canada.
Top 7 Over 70 is a movement spreading across Canada! If you’d like to apply to start a chapter, contact Top 7 Over 70 Canada president Kim McConnell (Kim@KimMcConnell.ca).
“It’s an exciting time for seniors in this country,” McConnell says. “There’s an increased awareness of the many contributions seniors bring to their communities. They know how to get things done in any number of fields and our country benefits from the experience and expertise they share with others.”
Interested in bringing Top 7 Over 70™ to your community? Key to starting a new chapter is having the right champions on board, along with a team of active people to support a Top 7 Over 70 event and community interest in the idea.
Top 7 Over 70 is intended to not just celebrate the new accomplishments of older adults. It’s also intended to stimulate conversation and thinking in people of all ages, regarding the importance of intergenerational interaction and the importance of considering one’s own retirement no matter how many years away that could be. Top 7 Over 70 provides inspiration for how others in terms of how they might want to contribute to society and make a difference in their communities, now and in the future.
