Digital Literacy for Senior Citizens

The Digital Literacy for Senior Citizens program is a supportive, patient, and specially designed training series helping older community members gain confidence and competence with smartphones, WhatsApp, UPI payments, video calling, online health portals, and government service websites. Small batch sizes and volunteer helpers ensure that no one is left behind, and the curriculum is built entirely around tasks and scenarios that are directly relevant to seniors' daily lives.

Participants who complete all sessions receive a Digital Buddy certificate and are paired with a younger community volunteer who can continue supporting them on an ongoing basis. The program addresses one of the most significant forms of modern exclusion — digital illiteracy among the elderly — and has empowered hundreds of seniors to manage their own banking, stay connected with members abroad, and access healthcare information independently and confidently.
