Memory Care Connections is a student-led program that facilitates relationships between high school students and memory care residents. By partnering with local memory care organizations and senior living homes, we facilitate a pen pal program, where students and residents connect through regular letters. Our team delivers hundreds of pen pal letters per month to both residents and high school students, assisting residents with reading and writing their responses. Our mission is to improve the quality of life for memory care and assisted living residents by providing them with companionship and a sense of connection to the younger generation.

At the same time, the program provides high school students with a valuable opportunity to engage with and learn from older generations, creating meaningful intergenerational connections. Memory Care Connections helps create lasting friendships and enriches the lives of both students and residents, building a mutual friendship through pen pals.
