Our friendly caller program is free and run by staff, volunteers and social work practicum students that are passionate about working with seniors. We aim to decrease social isolation in the Saskatoon senior population by providing social phone calls to those who would benefit from social interaction. If you or someone you know could benefit from this program please contact us today.

Saskatoon Services for Seniors offers housekeeping services for all seniors in Saskatoon. Our staff is screened and fully insured. We are here to assist with many household cleaning services such as kitchens, bathrooms, laundry, dusting and wall washing. We only provide the services that you require and as such only have a one hour minimum for each appointment. We can provide regular weekly service, bi-weekly services or just when you need us. The fee involved is based on the seniors’ income and if cost is a barrier, though our donors we can usually overcome this barrier to be able to get seniors the help they need.

Here at Saskatoon Services for Seniors we strive to make a difference every day. We do this though helping Seniors remain safely in their own homes by helping provide the services that they need. One of these key services, especially in winter, is our Grocery Delivery Program and we are currently looking for one or two volunteers to help out. If you are interested in helping seniors in our community please contact our office today. Our grocery shoppers/delivery volunteers are needed for one to two days per week.

Today more than ever your support is extremely valuable. Your support helps progress our services while playing a vital role in keeping seniors independent. Our generous supporters help to supplement the cost to some of our low income seniors in the community, as well as fund programs that are free to any senior like our Friendly Caller program. Every dollar of support stays right here in Saskatoon. We have many lower income seniors that need our services and the generosity of your support allows us to be able to assist them.

For most of us, doing a workout 3 times in a week is a great week. It also means that your results are largely going to be dictated by the “Other 165” hours in the week. Factors like sleep, stress, hydration, and nutrition have a lot more to do with how your clothes fit than the pushups that you did yesterday. Yes, it’s important to get your workouts in, but it’s even more important to be accountable to what happens during the “Other 165.” Embrace it!
