The Silver Button
Réseau FADOQ has been fully dedicated to improving quality of life for seniors for nearly half a century and has chosen the silver button to symbolize this important work. The four buttonholes represent the four pillars of good quality of life for all seniors: health, well-being, a sense of belonging, and safety.
Each fall it rolls out a campaign that encourages people of all ages to proudly wear silver buttons in support of current and future seniors.
We champion quality of life!
This year again, with the pandemic we are all facing, the Silver Button symbol is more evocative than ever. For months, together with our parents and grandparents, mentors, confidants, and friends, we’ve lived through isolation and uncertainty.
This dark period has underscored how important it is to improve quality of life for seniors, both today and in the future. Réseau FADOQ is taking action. Let’s work together to help make the well-being of our senior citizens a top priority for the society we live in.
On behalf of the voiceless and those no longer with us, and to help bring about a better future…
On October 1, International Seniors Day, let’s all wear the Silver Button!
