...

To partner with the government, private entities and other stakeholders to provide support services to the old in the vicinity.

To enhance the success of the council mission, we will join hands with the government, the private sector and people of goodwill to create a rich pool of required resources. Through that, the council will initiate diversified programs that will directly address the needs of the old. Moreover, the council secretary general will be writing to the federal government raising concerns on matters affecting the old such as health care and infrastructure. Besides funds, the council will also have a volunteer program where dedicated youth can have a chance to serve the old in charity.
