Day dedicated to raising awareness about the various challenges faced by older people.

This week, as you walk the streets, you might see flowers—lots of flowers. October 1st is not Valentine’s Day, but the International Day of Older Persons. Think of your parents, your grandparents, and your neighbors, and give them a flower to show that you’re thinking of them.
Thanks to Accolage, Bras dessus Bras dessous, and the Belgian Red Cross for their wonderful actions on the ground.
