It started as a way for a shy 22-year old to show her appreciation to a stranger. And now, eight years later "We Are Young" (WAY) is a social enterprise connecting people to seniors in their community. Katie Mahoney is the co-founder of the charitable group in Halifax. They had been granting wishes to seniors for a few years prior to the pandemic lockdowns before they had to change up their action plan. And this holiday, they are giving people an opportunity to send a greeting to someone who may not have anyone else in their lives. She breaks down how it came to grow from an idea on the back of a napkin to how it's working to bring joy to others in this conversation.
