Chartwell Wish of a Lifetime

After an exciting relaunch, Chartwell Wish of a Lifetime (CWOL) continues to grant meaningful wishes that inspire joy, connection, and purpose for Canadian seniors. With every wish, we highlight the experiences and vitality of older adults – inspiring others to reach for their goals, dream big, and live a life well-lived. In 2025, our charity granted 33 wishes, an increase from 22 in the previous year, reflecting growing engagement and impact among seniors.

Over 90% of wish recipients say that having a wish granted helped to improve their quality of life, happiness, sense of purpose, and overall energy. This positive impact does not end with the wish recipients. It spreads across to their loved ones and reminds others that life continues even after retirement. Through the work of our organization, we have seen intergenerational connections made and the effects of social isolation reduced.
