RongXian grew up in mainland China, and came to the United States more than 30 years ago. He lives in Brooklyn, where he met his wife and they raised their two children. After many years as an electrician with the same company, he recently retired. A friend told him about a JASA center that needed help setting up karaoke equipment. With his technical expertise and time to finally pursue his passion of singing, RongXian joined the center.

He now runs the weekly Chinese karaoke group, and has invited friends and other community members to sing songs in their native languages. He joins most mornings for exercise, and enjoys spending time with friends. RongXian loves to be active, and his JASA center gives him the opportunity to keep moving.

Thousands of older adults attend JASA’s 17 older adult centers each year, relying on JASA for daily lunch, social interaction, classes, and trips. JASA offers inperson, virtual, and hybrid classes, with more than 150 total classes offered each week and available to seniors all over the city.

JASA’s older adult centers across the Bronx, Brooklyn, Manhattan, and Queens offer vibrant meeting places to socialize with friends, share a meal, participate in arts and cultural programs, and celebrate life events. Senior center programming includes intergenerational activities, computer classes, health screenings, exercise sessions, and special interest discussion groups.

This necklace is handmade with love and care by JASA seniors. Treat yourself today and support older New Yorkers!
