WINGS established as a charity in June 2006 and our mission is to enable women, aged 40 and above, to embrace ageing with confidence by empowering them to take responsibility for their happiness, health and security so that they can make a difference for themselves and people around them. As the longevity of old people extend, with women outlive, and outnumber men as they age, WINGS recognised that the importance of helping women age with confidence and empowering them to take responsibility for their happiness, health and security. We adopt a holistic approach in the design and development of our programmes, projects and our engagement with women. With this approach, it facilitates the creation of a community of active women who takes personal responsibility for their own well-being and development, engages with peers, learns as a group, and supports one another in their journey to age with confidence. They will then extend their influence to their immediate social and familial circle, and to the larger community through volunteerism.
This donation was on behalf of my mum who died almost 1 year ago, who benefited from this kind of charity throughout her later years...
