‘I look forward to planning this beautiful day to which is completely dedicated to the senior citizens of various old age homes across the city. It’s quite heartening to realize how much they eagerly wait this day more than anybody here. Their excitement and joy to be a part of this event constantly motivates me and I will ensure to continue this initiative just to see their broad smiles and hopefully in the process creating a memorable day in their lives,’ said Karen Pinto, who has been organizing this event since last three years.

 

International day of senior citizen is an opportunity to highlight the important contributions that older people make to society. Along with top artists from the city, children also form part of the entertainment as the seniors love having them around and the kids in return learn some life altering lessons from them.

 

‘We are glad to be a part of this wonderful event. It is quite fascinating to witness the enthusiasm and excitement of these elderly people while participating in each activity. They are a plethora of knowledge and humor that is seldom noticed by their own kin and in today’s fast moving world, it’s quite unfortunate that the younger lot do not find enough time to spend with the elder members of their family. By celebrating this day, we hope to spread some joy, be with them and take back beautiful memories of a day well spent with the best people. The elders here today are an inspiration to us and have proven that age is just a number,’ said Sanjay Shenoy, joint managing director, Legacy Global Projects, who is supporting the event.
