Do you enjoy speaking with seniors? Are you comfortable with technology? They join us on July 10th from 1:30pm-3:45pm at a Technology Connection for seniors.
Seeking English speaking and bilingual Spanish/English speaking volunteers for this special event.
Volunteers will be asked to help answer seniors questions about how to use their devices. This is a special event where you will make a big difference just by contributing a small amount of your time to help seniors answer their questions about how to use their technological devices (cellphone, iPhones, tablets, etc.).
Please call me, Sarah, at 562-637-7103 with any questions you may have.
RSVP with phone number is required.
Thanks so much!
