Telehealth Access for Seniors- Donations Needed!

We provide seniors and low-income communities with devices to connect them to their physicians via TeleHealth.

Hello everyone! I'm Isabel Veloso, I'm a sophomore at Johns Hopkins University, and I'm a volunteer for Telehealth Access for Seniors! We are a national non-profit organization that provides clinics, veterans' hospitals, and low income communities with devices and instructions to connect them with their physicians online so they do not have to risk leaving their homes, which is especially important given the current COVID-19 pandemic (these devices also allow them to connect with their families and gain wellness tools). We would greatly appreciate if you could donate some old devices to our organization so we can distribute them to local clinics-- please comment if you're interested! If you don't have devices to donate, donating money to our GoFundMe (gf.me/u/xxgsyw) is also very impactful- $5 or $10 can go a long way to buying tablets and chargers!
