Welcome to BONZA the ORIGINAL Baby boomer site.
Established Feb 2001 to highlight 'My Generation'
born 1946-1964. I dedicate it to my sister Pamela
Anne Egan who died aged 58 from breast cancer.
Moving Forward
Please read these testimonials from two women who attended a Mature Age ‘Moving Forward’ session earlier in November.
"The seminar was very informative and inspiring. I always thought that after reaching half century of my life the society will just set me up in the firing line. If this world will be filled with people like you depression and hopelessness will be deleted." Susan
"I attended your Mature Age seminar at Burleigh Waters last Wednesday & found it to be most informative & quite positive. At 58yrs old I had been feeling as if it was too late to start again, but you gave me encouragement to move forward." Judith
Both have summed up so well what this site is all about. Hope!
We Babyboomers have to realise that our futures are full of hope. BONZA advocates for:

Mature Age Lost in Sea of Despair- A need for government focus. - Bonza Media Release - 2 Feb 2009
MATURE AGE POLICIES in the workplace so we can have choices when we are over 45.
We want to think new careers at our age not pensions.
We want to know what training is possible for those new careers.
We want an individual financial plan so we understand what assets and finances we will need in the future.
We want to stay healthy so we don’t clog up heath services before it just can not be avoided.
We want to continue to be creative, innovative and always positive about our futures.
We want to stay involved in the community and close to our families.
BONZA is committed to all of the above and we look forward to representing and inspiring our generation.
Aged care will also be a highlight in our lives as our numbers cause major planning headaches for authorities. Please read below about aged care research currently being organised by St. Vincent's hospital in Sydney.
