WISDOM EXCHANGE PROJECT
WHO WE ARE
Our Roots
The Wisdom Exchange Project was founded in 2020 to address social isolation and loneliness by creating a community committed to promoting brain health through mutually-beneficial intergenerational relationships.
"Too often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a listening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallest act of caring, all of which have the potential to turn a life around."
Leo Buscaglia
Author and Professor
