Community organizations in the United States and Taiwan have implemented initiatives focused on intergenerational connection and honoring elderly residents.

In Walnut, California, the Hand In Hand non-profit foundation organized an event at a local senior center featuring musical performances, dance, and companionship. Local officials attended to support youth involvement in community service.

In Yunlin, Taiwan, the Dongtun community held a “youth-senior co-learning” event in collaboration with the Formosa Long-term Care Aromatherapy Lions Club. During this initiative, elderly residents served as instructors, teaching local children how to make essential oil grape soaps to facilitate a mutual exchange of skills and wisdom.
