CARP (Canadian Association of Retired Persons) Mission Statement

CARP is a national, non­partisan, non­profit organization committed to advocating for a New Vision of Aging for Canada, promoting social change that will bring financial security, equitable access to health care and freedom from discrimination. CARP seeks to ensure that the marketplace serves the needs and expectations of Canadians as they age and provides value-­added benefits, products and services to our members. Through our network of chapters across Canada, CARP is dedicated to building a sense of community and shared values among our members in support of CARP’s mission.

Advocacy
There are two levels of advocacy within the CARP organization; national and local.  CARP National actively promotes social change that will influence the mindset of the general population and politicians towards the needs of adults as we age.  At the local level we involve ourselves in those issues of local or regional importance to the members of Chapter 25.

We are non-partisan and like to view ourselves as objective in our approach to local issues.  Keep in touch with our activities through our news section that is updated on a regular basis.  Feel free to leave your comments regarding any issue and let us know your views.

Benefits
CARP National has always had a tradition of providing it's members with outstanding benefits such as travel, insurance, home care, and financial.  At the local level our Benefits Committee works hard to bring tangible local benefits to our Chapter 25 members.  This includes Health & Wellness, Food and Entertainment, Real Estate / Moving, and discounts for other commercial businesses.

Community
CARP is not just a national organization.  They are committed to local representation by establishing local chapters across Canada.  Chapter 25 represents the cities of Kitchener, Waterloo, and the townships of Wilmot, Wellesley, and Woolwich.  We strive to be an active participant in the community with a focus on the needs of our more mature residents as they age.
