Imagine a Canada where seniors get the care and support they need, where, when and how they need it.

A Canada where we have a better understanding of the different dimensions of aging, and more health professionals are trained to apply that knowledge.

And envision a rising number of seniors who play an active role in the things that matter to them. Seniors who are part of daily life – around their neighbourhoods, as volunteers, in the workplace and across generations.

That quality of life is the dream of the RTOERO Foundation.

We are among the few Canadian foundations to invest exclusively in initiatives related to healthy and active aging. That applies to seniors wherever they are, whether living at home, in a retirement or long-term care residence in their community. 

We do it through funding, partnerships and research support. The Foundation invests in three key activities: 

• Research to better understand and address the complex needs of older adults
• Post Secondary Training in Geriatrics and Gerontology 
• Innovative Programs to Reduce Social Isolation

We invite you to join us in our collective effort to enhance the quality of life of aging adults.
