 Sinamys has been a volunteer with SAGE since July 2021 and is participating in our Companion Calls program. Every week, Sinamys has been contacting a senior who is a member of one of our partner organizations called Progress Place. During their weekly calls, Sinamys and her companion reminisce about their favourite memories and discuss their interests, including TV shows, sports, and music. Sinamys has met with her companion in-person and hopes to join a weekly senior program hosted by Progress Place in the future. Sinamys was inspired to join SAGE to reduce social isolation from the pandemic, particularly in seniors. She hopes to continue to support seniors and to advocate for their wellbeing through volunteering. Sinamys recently graduated from the University of Toronto, with an Honours Bachelor of Science in neuroscience and psychology. Sinamys has extensive volunteer experience, including as a research assistant, at Baycrest hospital, and at an Acupuncture clinic. It is clear that Sinamys is committed to improving the health of her community and we are grateful to have her on our volunteer team.
