About Us
Started in Boulder, CO in 2019, Tech Pals realized a great need for teaching technology. Technology can enrich lives by increasing safety, providing conveniences for comfort and entertainment, maintaining and monitoring health and staying close to family and friends. The Tech Pals founders are millennials. Technology grew as they grew up and they were raised on technology. Tech Pals recognized that others who were not raised with technology struggle to embrace it. Through one on one in home training, group workshops and presentations, virtual drop in helps, virtual game nights, and recorded tech training YouTube videos, Tech Pals is enriching lives, enabling all generations to embrace technology.
In December of 2019 Tech Pals became a non profit 501(c)(3). We are currently applying for a RFP with Boulder County in which we will be providing our top ten workshops and presentations for Boulder County residents and expanding our free services from covering individuals making below 30% Average Mean Income (AMI) to those making 80% AMI. In order to receive our funding, we are required to secure a 25% match of funds.
Our Mission
Our primary mission is to bring seniors and everyone together with technology.
Tech Pals believes a basic understanding of technology is a fundamental right, not a privilege. We strive to reduce social isolation and frustration and aim to make seniors and everyone more independent and help them to maintain their dignity and improve the quality of their life throughout the aging process.
“Enrich your life. Embrace technology.”
