Serenity Care for Seniors is proud to be working with the community to develop initiatives such as "Inspiring Kids Today."
This project is designed to bring kids and seniors together through intergenerational mentoring, with the seniors passing onto kids their widsom, knowledge and experiences that can further help to inspire and motivate the kids to be the best they can be.
Thank you to friends, families, professionals, advertisers and sponsors who are on board (with more to come) in helping to bring this great and exciting initiative to fruition.

Introduction:
With our level of expertise in alternative family care, Serenity Care for Seniors Inc. is positioned as the GLOBAL LEADER in "Fostering Seniors" through the development of alternative family care homes in communities where there are seniors.

Once you have been qualified as a Professional Care Associate you can earn between $1,000.00 and $2,500.00 per month (per senior - when they are placed in your home).

Thankyou
As our Professional Care Associate Network expands Serenity Care for Seniors Inc. is receiving widespread recognition and is quickly becoming a household name.
I would personally like to thank each and every person/family member who has opened their 'homes and their hearts' in considering caring for a senior in their home. Your experiences, commitment, and exemplary care for the senior(s) in your home sets the standard and allows us to expand this level of care for seniors.
As I travel across Ontario (and beyond) meeting families the sense of community is growing tremendously. As our Professional Care Associate Network grows so does our Corporate Management Team. We are conscious and sensitive to our ability to manage our growth and take every effort to ensure that our Professional Care Associate Network feel supported and a significant part of our TEAM.

Enriching Lives
At Serenity Care for Seniors Inc. we believe we are in the business of "Enriching Lives." Enriching the lives of seniors, their family, our fostering families, our regional team members, other professionals, and the community-at-large.
Last month in Ontario we recognized June (08) as 'seniors month.' At Serenity Care for Seniors Inc. we believe that every month is seniors month. In fact, we believe that we should celebrate each other every day. How many times do you feel you have been 'overlooked?' How many times do you feel you have 'overlooked' someone else? Moreover, how much do you think our aging population gets 'overlooked?'
Starting August 01, 2008 we empower and challenge each and every one of our Professional Care Associate Network Members to promote our alternative family care program for seniors
to their colleagues, family & friends, and the community-at-large. If each of us does our part then we are closer to (a) not overlooking those who need our care and (b) enriching more lives
