let's celebrate every moment ✨
Covenant Foundation raises funds to enhance care across Covenant Health, Covenant Care and Covenant Living communities in Alberta. With the support of generous donors, we help bring comfort, dignity and connection to people at every stage of life including seniors.
Every June, Covenant Foundation celebrates Seniors' Month. It is our way of honouring seniors and investing in care that brings dignity, comfort and joy to everyday life in our care communities across Alberta.
Aging can be filled with challenges like loneliness, declining health and the fear of being forgotten. That’s why Seniors’ Month is so important. It shines a light on the value of every senior, reminding them that they are seen, cherished and never alone.
This year, Seniors’ Month is about celebrating every moment: not just the milestones, but the quiet, meaningful experiences that spark the reminder that they are valued and cared for.
A shared laugh.
A warm meal.
Time together.

Celebrate Every Moment
This Seniors’ Month, we invite you to celebrate the moments that matter most with the seniors who have shaped your life.
Selected stories will be featured throughout Seniors’ Month as we celebrate the incredible seniors who shape our families and communities.

Celebrating my parents who are thriving in retirement: doing what they love, staying active, and loving life as grandparents 💛
His love and the way she felt so safe with him are clear in this moment. He adored her, and she adored him right back. We lost him suddenly just a few years later, but I’m so grateful she has memories like this to hold onto, and that his love will always be part of her story.
This is me and my 91-year-old Baba.🤍 She is so caring, thoughtful, and considerate of others I can only hope to grow up to be just like her… and maybe one day make perogies as good as hers!
My grandma spent a few wonderful years at St. Teresa’s in Calgary. As dementia progressed, we watched her slowly drift further away. Conversations became harder. Recognition faded. It’s a quiet kind of heartbreak. But then there were these small, unexpected moments. She would sit with my daughter, playing and laughing, completely at ease. In those moments, there was no confusion. Just connection. Just love. Those are the moments I hold onto because even when so much is lost, they remind you what truly remains.
Grandpa Walter always made time to sit and colour with us, and we tried so hard to shade our colouring books just like him. It really was about the time he gave us, the patience he had, and the way he made each of us feel important just by sitting beside him. Here he is years later, still colouring… but this time with my kids. We were lucky to share a couple more birthdays after this, and I’m so grateful for the time we had.
Thank You to our sponsors
