About Us
GEF Seniors Housing is the largest social housing provider for seniors in Alberta and is a registered charity.
We provide nearly 3,800 low to moderate-income seniors with access to affordable housing and services in 41 housing communities across Edmonton.
We believe every senior deserves a home that meets their housing needs and enhances their well-being, especially those living on limited incomes.
Our wide selection of Seniors Self-Contained (SSC) and Affordable Apartments and Lodge accommodations throughout Edmonton gives seniors more choices of where they want to live.
In 1959, our organization was established under provincial legislation as Greater Edmonton Foundation (GEF). Since the 1960s, the City of Edmonton and the Government of Alberta have worked collaboratively to build retirement homes for low-income seniors. The City provided land and the provincial government built and owned the homes
Foundations and other Housing Management Bodies (HMBs) were established to manage the properties in one or more municipal districts or counties across the province. The Greater Edmonton Foundation was one of these foundations. In 2012, we changed our name to GEF Seniors Housing and remain a registered charity.
For 65 years, we have continued working with the community as an active partner in the important work of providing quality social housing for seniors in Edmonton and its surrounding communities, in accordance with our Vision, Mission, and Values. Print Version
