    Description

    For many seniors, a smartphone or tablet isn't just a gadget- it's a lifeline to grandkids, old friends, and essential services. We are looking for patient, tech-friendly volunteers to help our local seniors navigate the "scary" stuff, from sending thier first photo to joining a family Zoom call.

    You don't need to be a software engineer to make a difference. If you know how to navigate an app, set up and email. or connect to Wi-Fi, you're already and expert in their eyes. You'll provide one-on-one support or small group gudance on:

    • Smartphones: Texting, taking photos and staying safe.
    • Tablets & Laptops: Browsing the web and video calling family.
    • Social Media: helping them see those "must-see" updates from family and friends.

    Technology can be isolating when you don't know how to use it. By spending just and hour or two, your're not just teaching a skill- you're curing loneliness and giving someone their independence back and taking the fear of technology and turning it into a skill!
