Do you want to help seniors overcome technological barriers? Volunteer to tutor technology for our Cantonese speaking Seniors living at Doh On Yuen Oakland! Many of SAHA’s seniors living in affordable housing want to learn how to use their technology and have very little knowledge of how to operate and navigate a computer, a tablet and/or a smart phone. They have a strong desire and need to learn. Help these seniors operate their technology so that they can communicate with family and friends!
