We all feel lonely sometimes.  No one should feel lonely, detached, or depressed all of the time.  Least of all the elderly.

Senior Check In is an organization founded and run by high school students who want to do their part to help eliminate chronic loneliness in the elderly.

We do this by pairing seniors with dedicated phone ‘buddies.' Each week, these buddies reach out via phone to offer companionship and support. In return for their time and care, student volunteers earn volunteer hours and enrich their own lives as they comfort others.
