The Caring for the Elderly Awareness Program was successfully conducted at Grace Community College, focusing on the importance of compassion, dignity, and responsible care for senior citizens.
The session was led by Mr. Mahalingam, Director of DEAR Old Age Home, Bangalore, who shared his valuable experience and insights on the physical, emotional, and social needs of the elderly. He highlighted the challenges faced by older adults and emphasized the role of families, institutions, and society in ensuring a safe and respectful life for them.
Students and participants gained practical understanding about elderly care, empathy, and social responsibility. The program created awareness on how young individuals can contribute positively to the wellbeing of senior citizens through care, respect, and service.
This initiative reflects Grace Community College’s commitment to social awareness, community service, and value-based education.
