TESTIMONIALS
Attending the Global Knights Foundation’s Commemoration of the 2025 United Nations International Day of Older Persons (UNIDOP) was a deeply rewarding experience, offering the opportunity to connect with like-minded individuals committed to advancing mental health and wellbeing. As Founder of Safe Brain Organisation (SBO), the event served as a catalyst for a strategic partnership that led to a joint SBO–IVLP Alumni virtual event held in celebration of World Mental Health Day.
Attending GKF's UNIDOP 2025 event was an eye-opener, showing me the power of listening to our elders’ wisdom. As a young entrepreneur, I was moved by their stories and inspired to mentor others in my community to respect and learn from those who paved the way. GKF’s passion for empowering older persons is truly motivating—every step forward counts!
The Global Knights Foundation's UNIDOP 2025 event was truly inspiring, uniting generations to champion the rights and well-being of older persons. Their commitment to fostering intergenerational connections left a lasting impact on our community.
The program was insightful and informative; I loved that there was inclusivity and it brought back memories. The organisers did a very good job.
