UA3's Senior Smartphone Workshop has been keeping our interns busy these past two weeks! They've been providing personalized tech support to neighborhood seniors on the pantry line and at our official workshops at the Manny Cantor Center. ๐ŸŽ

From essential translation platforms, health management apps like mychart or the basics of internet privacy, we're making sure a vulnerable community isn't left behind in the tech world ๐Ÿ’ฌ๐Ÿ“ฑ๐Ÿง“๐Ÿ‘ต

Bridging the digital divide! ๐Ÿ“ฑ๐ŸŒŽ

Last Wednesday, young interns offered digital support for their Mandarin-speaking elders in our new Better Health With Your Smartphone workshop! ๐Ÿ‘ฉโ€๐Ÿซ

For many of these elders, navigating through the U.S. with their native language all these years hasn't been easy. After our workshop, we were happy to see seniors feeling more confident to find trustworthy information online to benefit their health and social circle! Next workshop, April 1st!

Moments like this remind us that to build community, one must be community! โค๏ธ๐Ÿ’™

Hello neighbors! Thereโ€™s so much to be grateful for this Thanksgiving season ๐Ÿ‚๐Ÿฆƒ

Last Thursday, we kicked off our annual Thanksgiving distributions with a special Harvest Festival at NYCHA Rutgers Houses, our neighbors just a few blocks away in the Two Bridges community.

Weโ€™re sending all our gratitude to the amazing community powering these distributions; our loyal volunteer family, food suppliers, and supporters who make this possible.

Thank you to Council Member Chris Marte () and Congressman Dan Goldman (), who stopped by to meet families and share in the day. Also, thanks to ConEdison () and University Settlement() for supporting!

Because of your support, families across NYC will head into the holidays with full grocery bags and everything they need to make the dishes they love most.

Such a joyous gathering! ๐ŸŒ•๐Ÿ’›
We joined our partners at the Asian Community Center ๐Ÿ“746 61st St, Brooklyn, to celebrate Mid-Autumn Festival and strengthen our shared mission of building healthier, more connected neighborhoods across NYC.

Each organization brings its own purpose. Today, our missions aligned as we learned, shared, and celebrated together.

Wishing everyone a wonderful Mid-Autumn Festival! Remember, community starts with each of us. Reach out, give back, and stay connected. ๐Ÿค
