Essential

Hope for East Harlem's Elderly

Avatar: Official proposal Official proposal

What problem would you like to solve?

Care for the elderly

Why is it important to solve? Why is it relevant for the community?

Our elderly are the generation that was able to build all that we have today. Today, there are many elderly living alone who don't interact with anyone for days.

What idea do you have to address the problem?

A program where someone would visit the lonely elderly, check in on them, deliver groceries and provide a pleasant human interaction

Who would that help?

The elderly of the community

What neighborhood would benefit from your idea?

East Harlem
