    About Us

    Our Hospital Buddy Program provides critical direct support that can improve healthcare outcomes for pediatric patients. Partnering with hospital staff, we pair college students with young patients to help alleviate the emotional effects of long-term hospitalization.

    Our Senior Buddy Program fosters meaningful intergenerational connections, by pairing college students with older adults in assisted living facilities. Through this program, we help reduce social isolation and loneliness, improving the overall wellbeing of the residents and the community.
