About Teens2Seniors
Teens and Seniors connecting...
Welcome to Teens2seniors- a community where teens and seniors come together to build meaningful connections and lasting friendships across generations. Through fun and engaging activities like playing card games, singing karaoke, enjoying board games, laughing over charades, and so much more, we create opportunities for joy, learning, and companionship.
Teens2seniors (T2S) is a non-profit founded by Luc Gutmann, who was inspired by his own grandmother’s journey after being diagnosed with dementia and placed in assisted living. Wanting to ensure she was not only cared for but also enjoying her time and staying connected with him and the younger generation, Luc created T2S as a way to bridge the gap between teens and seniors.
By sharing stories, laughter, and experiences, T2S empowers teens to learn from the wisdom of seniors, while giving seniors the joy of companionship and the fresh energy of youth. Together, we’re making memories that bridge generations and enrich lives.
Fun Games
Every other Saturday, our teen volunteers visit a local senior home to share quality time and connection through games. From classics like Memory and Go Fish to the ever-popular Uno, the activities are chosen by the residents themselves, giving them the joy of leading the experience. This flexibility not only empowers seniors to engage in what excites them most but also sparks lively interactions that strengthen bonds across generations.
Learning from each other
Connecting seniors with teens creates meaningful social engagement that stimulates the mind and helps preserve memory. Activities such as conversation, games, and shared experiences encourage cognitive exercise while also reducing feelings of isolation. These intergenerational relationships not only support memory health but also bring joy and purpose to both seniors and teens.
