“We are a community of hundreds of young volunteers working to break down generational barriers in our mission to make the world a better place.”

Teens Helping Seniors seeks to keep vulnerable people safe from Covid-19 while also facilitating relationships between seniors and teens. Started in the earliest days of the pandemic, the group connects older people and those who are immunocompromised or disabled with teen volunteers who can pick up their groceries and medications for them. In addition to providing seniors peace of mind and safety from Covid-19, Matthew’s work brings the youngest and oldest generations of society closer together.
