New Hope Senior Citizen’s Centre
The New Hope Senior Citizen’s Centre’s mandate is to provide seniors with accessibility to community life and to help fight against and alleviate isolation amongst seniors in the NDG community. Since 1979, our dynamic community centre has been providing a healthy space where members, 50 years and over, can gather for recreation and social activities, have lunch together, stimulate their intellects, pursue their interests and do volunteer work.
New Hope Senior Citizens’ Centre is a grassroots non-profit community organization serving the senior population of Notre-Dame-de-Grace (N.D.G.). New Hope aspires to provide a friendly environment where seniors can thrive through a variety of social and community-based services and activities. By promoting access to volunteerism, civic involvement and other services, New Hope aims to break isolation and foster global health of the community, benefiting the overall well-being of the ageing population.
