How We Started

In the summer of 2022, the idea for Senior Tech Connect was sparked by a simple observation: many older adults struggle with basic technology issues, from navigating cell phones to managing emails. What started as a volunteer effort at a senior center in Miami Beach, led by 16-year-old Nick (founder and son of our COO, Angy), quickly grew into a broader mission. This initial visit planted the seed for what would become Senior Tech Connect.

Where We Are Now

Fast forward to 2024, and our mission remains stronger than ever. Senior Tech Connect has become a vital resource for older adults in Miami-Dade County. We now offer classes at several independent living facilities, senior centers, and public library branches. It's incredibly fulfilling to see seniors learn new tech skills and become more connected with their loved ones. Knowing that our efforts help them communicate more effectively with friends and family is truly fulfilling.

In under three years, we have trained over 3,200 students (including a few centenarians)! Our journey proves that learning is possible at any age, and we're excited to continue bridging the gap between generations, one tech skill at a time.

Our Mission

We are dedicated to enhancing the lives of older adults by removing barriers to technology and equipping them with the necessary tools and skills to thrive in today's digital landscape.
