Active Aging in Manitoba

Welcome to Active Aging in Manitoba. We are a not-for-profit organization dedicated to the promotion of active aging opportunities, inspiring active lifestyles for all older Manitobans. With active aging, older adults can enhance their health and mobility, and participate in their community. We’re the provincial organization responsible for the planning and implementation of the annual Manitoba 55+ Games and Active Aging Week embedded into October’s Seniors and Elders month.

Support active aging in your community today

Your contribution will help ensure sustained programming for older adults and allow the development of new partnerships and programming throughout the province. You are helping to support AAIM’s mission to provide opportunities for older adults to be active, stay connected and engage with their communities. Our ultimate goal is to help those individuals to lead healthy, happy lives and remain independent. Your support allows AAIM to continue to support older Manitobans to achieve the health benefits of being active.
