The nonprofit San Diego Seniors Community Foundation gave more than $48,000 in grants for programs at senior centers across North County last year and some of the funding is going toward programs continuing this year that support healthy aging and independence and reduce isolation among seniors during the pandemic. The grants ranged from $2,500 to $15,000.
The Oceanside Senior Center received $15,000 for Digital Cafe, a program for equipment, instruction and support to improve virtual connection for isolated seniors to meet with others via their computers.
The San Marcos Senior Center was granted $14,910 for Connecting Seniors with Technology, a project that bridges the digital divide by providing equipment, instruction and support to seniors.
