Luoyang Zhengju’s Youth Day: Bringing Smart Tech to Seniors
On Youth Day, Luoyang Zhengju New Materials’ young workforce launched a heartwarming initiative at Hongxing Senior Center, aiming to bridge the digital divide for elderly residents. Over 120 employees, embodying the May Fourth spirit of care and innovation, spent the day donating and setting up smart devices, paired with patient tutorials to help seniors embrace technology.
The team brought 50 tablet computers encased in lightweight, impact-resistant composites—designed to withstand accidental drops. They also installed 10 smart healthcare stations with composite frames, featuring blood pressure monitors and emergency call buttons connected to the center’s nurse station.
Volunteers organized "Tech for Seniors" workshops, breaking down basics like video calls, photo sharing, and health app usage. 78-year-old Mr. Zhao beamed after his first successful video chat with his grandson: "These young people made it so easy!"
Young designers created simplified instruction manuals printed on tear-resistant composite paper, with large fonts and step-by-step visuals. They also set up a help desk staffed by employees for follow-up questions over the next month.
"This project lets us use our energy to empower the elderly," said 29-year-old team leader Grace Li. CEO Jason Wu added, "Youth Day is about respecting our past while building connections for the future—today’s effort does exactly that."
By day’s end, seniors were navigating tablets with newfound confidence. The center’s director noted, "These devices aren’t just tools—they’re lifelines to family and independence." As the sun set, the glow from tablet screens mirrored the warmth of intergenerational connection fostered by Zhengju’s youth.
