Hi! I’m Chakrika and I’m a sophomore at Drexel University! I’m from Bucks County, PA, which is right outside of Philadelphia.

This include creating new lessons (based upon what the seniors would like to learn) and reformatting old ones. I also enjoy presenting at in-person lessons, since I am able to gain a firsthand insight into the positive impact we are making on senior citizens.

Hi, my name is Uday and I am a sophomore at Purdue University. I help organize and create lesson ideas. I manage the content creators and push out tasks for them to work each week.

My favorite memory was when I was presenting a lesson on scam calls, watching how intently the viewers were listening and hearing how much the information helped them made me feel appreciated!

It’s amazing to witness how these skills empower them to connect in ways they didn’t think were possible.
