Our mission
To mitigate the social isolation of older adults by building a society that promotes their well-being, while enabling them to feel valued and remain socially connected.
How we are helping
Providing social comfort
Our volunteers are paired with older adults referred through their healthcare providers or coordinators. By exchanging stories over weekly calls, they steadily develop their new-found friendship.
Training to use technology
We are only a few screen taps away from someone. Training older adults to use modern technology empowers them to stay in touch with loved ones whenever they wish.
Building health literacy on COVID-19
Being the most vulnerable population, we educate older adults on COVID-19 and proper hygiene practices they can follow to minimize risk of exposure.
Connecting with community resources
Whether it be financial, housing, legal, recreational, religious, wellness, etc., we connect older adults with the appropriate services they are seeking.
Running groceries
We are more than happy to organize for groceries, and sometimes even run it ourselves!
