Host an event
Bring free tech help to your community
We partner with community spaces to host free tech support events and clinics, where older adults can drop by with their phones, tablets, or computers and receive friendly, one-on-one help. Our goal is to help people feel confident using technology while creating meaningful community engagement.
Whether you’re planning a special event, looking to increase foot traffic, or want to offer recurring tech support sessions, Silver Wizard can tailor an experience that fits your space and audience.
What is a Silver Wizard event?
A Silver Wizard event is a welcoming drop-in tech help session hosted at your location. Visitors can bring their devices and receive quick assistance with common technology questions such as:
• Fixing apps or settings
• Connecting to Wi-Fi
• Organizing photos
• Learning how to send messages or make video calls
• and more!
Events are designed to be informal, friendly, and accessible for all skill levels.
