"What a remarkable initiative you've built! I love that you are focusing on intergenerational connections...Thank you for everything you're doing to build in person community and to bring joy into people's lives. It was so clear from the pictures and videos how much people enjoy the experience you have created... For all the shiny objects and milestones that society has us chase, what really makes a difference in whether or not we find fulfillment are moments we spend loving people and serving others... "
Dr. Vivek Murthy, Surgeon General, United States. Dec 2024
Our Mission
We believe that intergenerational connections are key to creating a vibrant and connected community. Our programs and initiatives are designed to bring youth and elders together, fostering relationships that bring joy and meaning to all involved.
About Us
At Enliven, we are dedicated to help bridge the gap between elders and youth through meaningful exchange. We create concerts and performances small and large to engage seniors of all abilities.
Youth share their musical talents and cultural perspectives to entertain and uplift their audiences. Elders share their love, wisdom and support to the students. This exchange offers an enriching experience for both the elders and the youth, helping create special bonds and memories for all. If you are in the Greater Boston area and would like to bring a program to your facility, email us here.
If you are a student and would like to volunteer, sign up here.
