The Impact
Join us for the Bowmanville Older Adult Association’s 2nd annual walkathon—Walk Your Socks Off! This exciting event brings our community together to support the health and well-being of older adults.
All funds raised will directly enhance the lives of our members by providing engaging programs, exciting events, and meaningful social connections. These opportunities are vital for older adults, as places like the BOAA offer a sense of belonging, purpose, and support that might otherwise be missing.
As a non-profit organization, we rely on the generosity of our community to continue making a difference. Every step you take helps us provide a welcoming space where older adults can stay active, connected, and engaged. We appreciate all the support we can get—let’s walk together for a great cause!
