What problem would you like to solve?

Lack of technology use/knowledge amongst older adults.

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

In the age of technology/connectivity, being tech savvy is more important than ever. Keeping older adults connected through technology opens the door for more opportunities.

What idea do you have to address the problem?

Work with local high school children needing community service hours and have them trained to provide workshops for older adults in their respective community.

Who would that help?

The intergenerational idea would help both older adults and children

What NYC borough would benefit from your idea?

Manhattan
