    Help Pasadena Older Adults Navigate Technology

    Seeking Volunteers to Help Seniors Navigate Technology

    Join our mission to empower older adults with the digital skills they need to stay connected and independent! We’re seeking two types of volunteers who can help older adults with basic technology needs:

    1. Every Day Helpers (One‑on‑One Support)

    Whether it's texting a picture to grandkids or figuring out how to update an iphone, your guidance can be a great help for older adults in Pasadena. As requests for assistance come to our office, you'll be matched individually with an older adult to address their tech questions. No expertise is required beyond basic familiarity with smartphones, laptops, or tablets. Volunteering is flexible and will fit the needs of your schedule.

    1. "IT Cafe" Volunteers - Event Support

    Volunteer to provide basic tech support at our IT Cafe on Saturday, August 16 at 10 a.m.

    Volunteer tasks include:

    • Assisting seniors with simple tasks like sending photos, organizing apps, or changing settings
    • Offering hands-on, in-person support in a friendly setting (with free refreshments!)
    • Sharing your patience and encouragement-no advanced tech skills necessary!
