Donate your Old Devices to Help COVID-19

Students start nonprofit called Telehealth Access for Seniors to help connect elderly patients to digital medical care. Donate your old devices to give to elderly patients

Downingtown STEM Academy student, Riya Mitra, and Downingtown East Alumni currently at Northeastern university are working with a 501c3 pending non profit called TeleHealth Access for Seniors in Pennsylvania which is helping with COVID-19 relief by connecting elderly patients with access to digital medical care by providing them with donated devices. 

Due to COVID-19, most healthcare facilities are switching to telemedicine/telehealth and a lot of low income elderly patients do not have access to the proper devices to receive care. 

Riya and Shreya brought this cause to Philadelphia, partnering with the Philadelphia Veteran's Affair Medical Center to provide Philly veterans with devices to receive medical care. They are looking for residents in Chester County and the Philadelphia regional area to donate any old devices (iPads, iPhones, Androids, Laptops, etc.) and device chargers to help keep elderly patients safe and healthy. 

Donate by visiting the website and filling out the device drop form.
