Through intergenerational art, leisure and recreational programming we ensure access to meaningful activities that foster a sense of purpose, build social connections, and empower older adults to live their best life.

What Are People Saying about Richmond Aging and Engaging?
“I like to do art.
I like to keep my mind occupied.
It keeps me out of trouble!”
“If you weren’t here,
we’d be looking at a TV.”
“I was sitting out there with nothing to do.
I was reminiscing about bad things.
Coming here helps me take my mind off of those things.”
“This is the only fun we have all day.”
“Without you guys, we don’t have nothing to really do.
We don’t – we just sit here.
I love it when ya’ll come – [I look] forward to getting up to come do some activities,
something fun with the rest of the residents.”
“I have fun doing something I don’t normally do, and meeting people too!”
“I volunteered so I could get out of my comfort zone and make connections outside of my college campus.
It has been such a wonderful experience and it has greatly impacted me!”
“The thing I love most about volunteering is being able to connect with the community and listen to their stories while also sharing my own.
I always go home having learned something new.”
