Supporting Kamloops Seniors

Every contribution makes a difference.

**Elder Bloom Wellness Society is currently in the development stage. Services will launch once our facility and funding are in place. Thank you for supporting our vision.

Sponsorship Program

At Elder Bloom Wellness Society, we believe every senior deserves dignity, connection, and purpose — no matter their income level. To make our therapeutic day program accessible, we invite individuals, businesses, and community partners to sponsor participants.

Each sponsorship directly supports a senior’s participation in full-day programming five days a week, including:

Nutritious meals and snacks
Engaging therapeutic activities and supplies
Community outings and events
Transportation to and from our facility
Light personal care and wellness support

It takes approximately $1,500 per month per participant to provide these services. Sponsors may choose to:

Contribute monthly to support one participant’s ongoing care
Make a once-per-year contribution to cover a senior’s annual programming
Provide a partial sponsorship to share in the cost of accessibility

Your support ensures seniors in Kamloops facing disability, illness, or isolation can continue living meaningful, connected lives while caregivers receive the respite they need.

Mentorship and Networking

As a newly established nonprofit, Elder Bloom Wellness Society is built on passion, purpose, and a vision of supporting seniors with dignity, connection, and purpose. But passion alone isn’t enough — we also need guidance, wisdom, and community support to grow strong and sustainable.

This is where mentorship and networking come in. Experienced voices and supportive connections can make all the difference as we navigate the early stages of building a nonprofit.

We would deeply value:

Mentorship from leaders in nonprofit management, healthcare, fundraising, and community development.
Networking opportunities to connect with businesses, service clubs, community organizations, and professionals who share our vision.
Introductions to potential funders, sponsors, and collaborators who can help expand our reach.
Advice and insight on governance, grant writing, sustainable operations, and long-term planning.
Shared experiences from those who have walked this road before, so we can learn and adapt with integrity.

Your support through mentorship and networking doesn’t just help us succeed — it helps ensure seniors and caregivers in Kamloops receive the care, connection, and respite they deserve. Together, we can create something lasting and meaningful for our community.

Elder Bloom Wellness Society is in its early stages, and this is a unique opportunity to help shape something meaningful from the ground up. We are looking for people who care deeply about seniors, community, and inclusion to join us as board members or supporting members.

As a Board Member, you will play an active role in guiding our mission, ensuring accountability, and helping us make thoughtful decisions that reflect the needs of our community. Your voice at the table directly impacts how we grow and how we serve.

As a Supporting Member, you add strength and credibility to our society. Members have a voice in important decisions, show the community that Elder Bloom has a strong foundation of support, and help us stay aligned with the needs of seniors and caregivers.
