We are grateful to receive a $15,000 Spectrum Digital Education grant! For many older adults, digital literacy and confidence using devices can make a big difference in their ability to stay independent and reduce social isolation. This generous grant addresses this need by supporting our one-on-one technology clinics in Wright and Sherburne counties. Thank you to Spectrum for supporting our mission to empower people as they age!

She began volunteering with us washing windows, and has created a new pen pal program for the Crow River Senior Center community called GrandPals. She says, "I love getting to learn from the elders in our community, and I am so happy to be a small part of bringing that same connection to St. Michael!"
