Retirement Community Activity and Social Platform: Helping Seniors Discover Events and Clubs

Retirement Community Activity and Social Platform: Helping Seniors Discover Events and Clubs

Retirement communities host countless activities, clubs, and events, but residents often do not know what is available or how to get involved. Activity directors struggle to promote programs and boost participation. There is an opportunity to build a platform that makes retirement community life more discoverable and social.

The Problem: Retirement Community Activities Are Underdiscovered

Residents and staff face challenges:

• Residents miss events and clubs they would enjoy

• Activity calendars are often paper or buried in emails

• Difficulty forming and finding interest-based groups

• Staff spend time on manual promotion

• Social isolation when activities are not easily discoverable

Retirement communities invest in programming but lack modern discovery tools.

Why This Market Needs Solutions

• Growing senior population in retirement communities

• Social connection is critical for health and wellbeing

• Activity directors seek better engagement tools

• Families want to see loved ones engaged

• Willingness to pay for quality of life improvements

This market has strong operator demand and resident benefit.
