Mission statement

The Seneca Retirees’ Association (SRA) supports and engages with the Seneca Polytechnic community by celebrating its proud heritage while also actively contributing to its future success in meeting the challenges and obligations of an ever-evolving academic world. Our mission is to create a community of caring and sharing where all SRA members feel connected, valued and informed.

SRA will accomplish this mission by providing a venue where retirees can meet and stay connected. Where possible, SRA will also work with Seneca and outside organizations to help provide members with discounts and other benefits. SRA will promote and support the SRA Endowed Bursary as our ongoing contribution to the success of Seneca students.
