On Saturday April 6, 100 families in Saint-Laurent received a food basket and a recipe to make a delicious Easter/Spring meal.
Hope for Dementia organized the distribution with the help of 25 volunteers who delivered the baskets to vulnerable seniors and their families. Seniors also received a pamphlet with information with simple nutritional tips to promote brain health. They also received a bookmark with information about 12 modifiable risk factors of dementia.
Hope for Dementia is focused on the prevention of cognitive decline in seniors and promotes a healthy lifestyle through various programs.
This distribution is part of the Healthy Food. Healthy Brain. Program. Another 5 distributions can be expected for the rest of 2024.
The Healthy Food. Healthy Brain program is organized by Hope for Dementia. It is made possible through the generosity of The Echelon Foundation, and with to contributions from Novatek International, Cognistat, IGA Duchemin Family and Emmanuella Lambropoulos, MP Saint-Laurent.
