Really glad to meet Simon from @ridetoconnect, to discuss a great initiative @HelpAgeCanada! Raising funds through cycling to provide our seniors access to tablets to keep them connected during the pandemic is a genius idea. Thank you for your work!

In April we began our iPad lending program, a precursor to Seniors Can Connect! which we've since launched w/@HelpAgeCA. Robert tells his story: thanks to all CC supporters! @ottawacity @ESDC_GC @UnitedWayEO @ridetoconnect @Ruckify @SupportMyMac @OCH_LCO @OttCommFdn @bruyerecare

Gratitude to the family behind this beautiful note: 'Without his iPad, my dad’s quality of life would have been significantly diminished. We want you to know that the work you are doing to connect seniors with technology is of vital importance & the benefits can not be measured'
ALT It allows me to say complete thoughts. Mostly because I am able to let the outside world know that I am still here. I still have my same sense of humour. That I still laugh even though I may not show it in my face.
