The OSCC55+ has many opportunities for those who wish to support the Centres' mission and mandate. Event sponsorships, corporate fundraisers, advertising opportunities and program & service donations are just a few of the ways in which you can support. In some cases, companies like to bundle these opportunities in a year-long plan. These business partnerships are approved by the OSCC55+ Board of Directors.
We welcome businesses to get involved with special events and activities at our branches. A select number of opportunities are available each activity session and can be booked by contacting the Community Relations team.
