Support Us

You can help us make a difference. Work with us to connect older adults to life through technology: enabling independence, reducing social isolation, and fostering the self-esteem that arises from lifelong learning.

Social isolation, which is defined as the feeling of being disconnected from the support of family, friends and the community, is a growing health epidemic. According to the AARP Foundation’s Connect2Affect program, more than eight million adults aged 50 and older are affected by social isolation. Researchers at Utah’s Brigham Young University suggest that the health risks of prolonged isolation (loneliness, depression and cognitive impairment) are equivalent to smoking 15 cigarettes a day and being an alcoholic.

Technology in and of itself can’t reduce isolation, but tools that bring people together and create opportunities for engagement can. For example: research from the Gerontological Society of America reports that older adults who use the internet are 33% less likely to be depressed, and playing online games has long since been shown to improve cognitive skills.

Simply shopping online for groceries and being able to see the smiling faces of grandchildren in photos can make the world of difference in the daily life of an older adult. You can make that difference a reality.
