Matt Casertano and Dhruv Pai founded Teens Helping Seniors, a program dedicated to delivering essentials to the elderly
“I find that a lot of media have portrayed teens in a negative light during the coronavirus pandemic,” Pai says. “One of my personal goals for this organization is to bring the generations together and to really show them that, despite our differences, we can still help each other.”
As the program continues to rapidly grow, Teens Helping Seniors are looking for more volunteers to help during the coronavirus crisis. A post shared on its Twitter on Wednesday isas the organization has been “getting requests from seniors” in those areas. The organization has already had teens reach out from Pennsylvania and Texas looking for advice on how to start their own local chapters, Pai says.
Given the growing amount of interest in their service, Casertano adds that Teens Helping Seniors will “definitely continue” its delivery program after the coronavirus pandemic as “there are still people who physically can’t get groceries for themselves.”
