TECHNOLOGY SKILLS AS A RIGHT
Computer and online skills are essential for modern living. But many older adults are being left behind because no one has taken the time to explain technology to them.
We believe technological literacy is a right that needs to be available to all members of society.
A PREDATORY ONLINE WORLD
As vital as the internet is, it's also shockingly predatory. And older adults are often the easiest victims for online thieves. Their lack of cyber savvy has them losing billions every year.
It's simply not right, and we're doing something about it, offering cybersecurity training designed specifically for older adults.
STILL MORE TO GIVE
So many seniors are still vibrant, and keen to stay involved. But their lack of digital skills leaves them on the sidelines.
