In a heartwarming tribute to honor the invaluable contributions of our esteemed senior citizens, SeniorWorld introduced the SilverWings Awards and Seniors Got Talent Competition last year. This unique endeavor showcased the exceptional talents and unwavering spirit of seniors from all walks of life.

The SilverWings Awards, which invited nominations from across the country, recognized outstanding accomplishments in diverse fields such as Serving the Underprivileged, Education, Health Care, Environment, Sports & Fitness, Art, Entrepreneurship at 60+, and Social Media Influencer at 60+. The response was overwhelming, with over 1000 nominations pouring in from every corner of the nation, including remote areas like Kotteri in Tamil Nadu, Balipara in Assam, and Kidei Chhepda in Chattisgarh.

After rigorous rounds of interviews and evaluations, the deserving winners were selected. These remarkable seniors have proved that age is just a number and that passion knows no boundaries. One such winner is Ravi Bala Sharma, fondly known as Dancing Dadi, who at 65 defies age's limitations with her dedication to dance. An influencer, Ravi ji inspires countless individuals to chase their dreams regardless of challenges, echoing the philosophy that while the body ages, the spirit's vitality preserves youth, vigor, and aspirations.

Padma Shri Sonam Paljor, an 81-year-old mountaineer from Ladakh, was recognized for his accomplishments in Education. Having conquered peaks like Mount Everest and Nanda Devi, his focus has shifted towards empowering senior citizens. Through education in banking, technology, and moral values, he proves that age is no barrier to making a meaningful impact, serving as a beacon of inspiration to uplift communities and embrace new challenges at any age.

Another honoree, Tatiram Vishwakarma from Chattisgarh, is an exceptional artist who has mastered the art of Pitva, a celebrated iron-craft tradition in the Bastar region. Guided by ancestral influences, he began his iron-craft journey at just 14 years old. Over the decades, he has continuously pushed boundaries in tribal arts, constantly exploring new horizons.
