Summary | A grandmother texted her grandson a series of emojis to ask him how the pets were and how the hockey game was. Most of the seniors are not as tech-savvy as she is. As a result, three high school teenage girls decided to create a new organization called GTG Tech in order to help older people get more familiar with new media. They hold free training lessons once a month. Most of the seniors seeking help are women. The girls and older people think that the intergenerational exchange is very rich.
