For All Ages

For All Ages Empowering people to build real connections that transform health and life outcomes. Join us. 🌟 Our vision. Connecting generations changes lives and communities.

Our vision is a healthy community that is connected across generations. We're working to end loneliness and ageism through intergenerational programs and events. More than 60% of Americans are lonely. That's 200 million people. And in Connecticut alone, that's 2.1 million people. Those same people lack the opportunity for meaningful in-person social interactions on a regular basis. Our communities

have become segregated by age over the past 50 years, which has resulted in an increase in isolation and loneliness among older adults. And young adults are now feeling more lonely than older adults. Reuniting the generations improves the health and well-being of individuals of all ages and increases community cohesion. And it changes perceptions of aging. We invite you to join us on our journey to connect the generations and inspire action to end loneliness and ageism. Follow our facebook and Instagram pages, volunteer with us, and/or donate to help our mission. See www.forallages.org for more information.

What an incredible day! 💙

On Friday, 60 dedicated volunteers came together at our inaugural Connect‑a‑Thon to assemble 700 social connection kits for older adults who may be feeling isolated. What began as a goal quickly grew into something even bigger—proof of what’s possible when community shows up with heart and purpose.

Each 'Connectful Kit' is filled with meaningful tools designed to spark connection, conversation, and belonging. Behind every assembled kit is the promise of a reminder to an older adult that they are seen, valued, and connected.

We’re deeply grateful to the volunteers and our 2026 Partners - University of Saint Joseph, Disability Planning Partners, Prudential, Reid and Riege, P.C., and UConn (Schools of Medicine, Dental Medicine, and Doctor of Physical Therapy) - for helping make this milestone moment part of our 7th anniversary celebration and America’s 250th.

This is social connection in action - and we couldn’t be more inspired. 🌟

Tomorrow's the day!

We are excited to be holding our inaugural Connect-a-Thon tomorrow in celebration of our 7th anniversary and America's 250th. Today, we're sending a huge shout-out to our 2026 Partners: University of Saint Joseph, Disability Planning Partners, Prudential, Reid and Riege, P.C., and UConn (Schools of Medicine, Dental Medicine, and Doctor of Physical Therapy).

We are looking forward to more than 50 volunteers coming together to assemble 600 social connection kits for isolated older adults. Curated by For All Ages, each kit contains impactful tools to encourage older adults to connect with others.

Our vision.

Our vision is a healthy community that is connected across generations. We're working to reduce loneliness and isolation, improve the health and well-being of people of all ages, and change the dialogue on aging through intergenerational programs.

Connecting generations changes lives and communities.

More than 60% of Americans are lonely. That's 200 million people. And in Connecticut alone, that's 2.1 million people. Those same people lack the opportunity for meaningful in-person social interactions on a regular basis.

Our communities have become segregated by age over the past 50 years, which has resulted in an increase in isolation and loneliness among older adults. And young adults are now feeling more lonely than older adults.
