ElderAid is the app that facilitates this connection. It allows both the elderly and volunteers to sign up, making it easy for the elderly to request assistance and for volunteers to select how they can help. The elderly receive the support they need, and volunteers gain the opportunity to assist them while also earning volunteer hours in the process.
