Join us to welcome the Lunar New Year and celebrate the Year of the Horse in 2026. We will enjoy festivities in Chinatown which will include a festive bazaar, delicious 9-course Chinese lunch and exciting Chinese performances. 

We would like to thank the City of Calgary for funding this initiative for our clients.

Last month, our "Tech Buddy" pilot program at the Lakeview Community Association was more than just a success—it was a joyful, buzzing hub of intergenerational learning.

We watched with pride as enthusiastic students from Connect Charter School patiently sat alongside older adults, guiding them through the world of smartphones, tablets, and laptops. The room was filled not just with questions about apps and settings, but with laughter, shared stories, and mutual respect. The seniors gained invaluable digital confidence, while the students discovered the reward of sharing their knowledge and connecting with a different generation.

This is the heart of what we do. Intergenerational learning bridges gaps, builds community, and reminds us that everyone has something to teach and something to learn. It transforms a simple tech lesson into a meaningful human connection, and the results are truly beautiful.

What a heartwarming day!

A huge thank you to everyone who joined us yesterday for the MPC Foundation’s Thanksgiving Potluck. Our hearts are full seeing our seniors and community members come together for food, laughter, and connection.

From the delicious shared dishes to the lively games and joyful conversations, it was a beautiful celebration of all we are thankful for. We are so grateful for this incredible community.

What a vibrant day!

We journeyed across nations through the universal languages of music, dance and dialogue with over 700 attendees. We extend our deepest gratitude to every performer who shared their culture and talent with us. Thank you to our incredible volunteers, our dedicated partners, and to our wonderful audience for their energy and enthusiasm.
