Virtual Webinar

CONNECT hosted a week-long technology session which consists of a variety of one-on-one seminars. Many senior citizens don’t have any knowledge on how to use the technology surrounding them, and these sessions greatly improves their abilities in this field. We also knew the senior citizens were enjoying this event when more and more of them began requesting for one-on-one sessions!

Superbowl Scattergories

CONNECT’s Superbowl scattergories activity is to boost excitement about the game between the highly supported Eagles and forgotten Chiefs, we gathered the senior citizens in a room to sharpen their memory skills while playing an engaging game. It was incredibly gratifying to see the seniors get more and more into the game as they started shouting out the answers in order to win.

CONNECT’s created a bracelet exchange program which we plan to continue and expand. While the senior citizens have been creating and passing on bracelets to us throughout our project, we decided to gather a few of our volunteers to make colorful bracelets to pass on to THEM!
