Bridging the Digital Divide

Through its Digital Divide Program, San Diego Oasis works to identify those in need who may not have access to technology, are isolated, or who aren’t tech-savvy in senior living residences and community organizations. At no cost, San Diego Oasis provides a Samsung tablet, internet for 12 months, and training to learn how to engage with technology upon receiving their new device. 

A coupon is also provided for several free San Diego Oasis classes to not only offer active learning, but also engage with other local older adults. This Digital Divide Program is only available through qualifying partnerships with senior living facilities and organizations that serve older adults in needs.

Your support is needed to help San Diego Oasis in its mission to reach local older adults and enrich their day-to-day lives, especially as the pandemic continues with new variants – the organization needs community support to continue its Digital Divide Program. Research has shown older adults need technology not only to keep themselves safe and physically healthy, but also enhance their lives by keeping them occupied and connected. Corporate sponsors are also needed to teach and sponsor classes to allow San Diego Oasis to continue to offer them for free or at low-cost.
