Cayman: Older Persons Month 2020 Ambassador Bios

GRAND CAYMAN (GIS) – Bios of the Older Persons Month Ambassadors 2020 will be featured throughout October.

“Our seven older persons were chosen as they each have an impressive history of service in their respective districts,” said DCFS Director Paulinda Mendoza Williams.

“We are very much looking forward to them taking part in the observance, in which they will be sharing the importance of this year’s theme: “Life Stories: Then and Now” with both their peers and the wider community,” she added.

During October, the Older Persons Month Ambassadors will be sharing aspects of their own life stories as well as attending several of the observance’s events throughout the Cayman Islands. In doing so, it is hoped they can encourage others to share their own stories to promote a greater degree of intergenerational understanding and acceptance.

As well as the bios, the Ambassadors will each feature in a short video, either talking about some aspect of their life story or reflecting about an aspect of Older Persons Month in general.
