What is the problem you found?

How might we connect the older and younger generations?

Customer / Problem

There is a widening generational gap between the young and the elderly due to the rise of the digital age. 

What Is Your Solution?

We aim to set up a system of weekly classes run in nursing homes. In these classes, youth from our community would be able to volunteer to help teach the elderly how to use technology. These classes would be a positive bonding experience between generations, bringing our community closer together and teaching both the young and the elderly valuable new skills.
