ABOUT WISER PROGRAMS

OUR STORY

Wiser Programs began with the simple idea that having a sense of adventure, meeting new people, and learning don't have an expiry date. All too often, older adults are offered activities that underestimate their energy and sense of wonder. Wiser Programs was created to change the way people experience growing older.

Founded in Edmonton, Alberta, Wiser Programs designs and hosts full-day experiences called DayCations for adults 55+. Each DayCation includes a meaningful presentation by a local expert, a light lunch and a workshop or adventure - all close to home. 

MEET THE FOUNDER

Wiser Programs was conceived by educator and community builder, Camille Rae, whose lifelong passion for teaching and travel inspired the idea. After decades of creating spaces of fellowship and laughter - from classrooms to community events - Camille envisioned a program that would make it easy for older adults to stay engaged and socially connected. 

Camille believes that learning, community and adventure are timeless.
