ORGANIZATION: Center for Modern Aging Princeton

Gadget Lab with Bloomberg volunteers
Our seniors receive wonderful one on one assistance with their gadgets, phones, computers!

Are you passionate about tech gadgets, phones and computers? Patient, knowledgeable, and compassionate volunteers are needed to help aging adults in our on-site Computer/Tech Lab. Volunteers assist older adults 1:1 with various devices, including desktops (in our lab), laptops, tablets and phones, on all operating systems.


Sample questions from older adults may include "How do I use email and how can I FaceTime and use social media with my grandchildren?", "How do I organize my photos?", "How do I use my new gadget?" and "How do I find or organize my files?"

We are expanding our in-person hours in the near future. We are in immediate need of a volunteer for every Thur sday from 2-4 pm.

We are also in need of volunteers willing to substitute when someone is on vacation.
