Our Initiatives
At SharedFutures, we focus on bringing generations together, supporting our seniors through warmth and connection. Every project helps build community, share knowledge, and offer gentle support, touching lives across 11 nations and beyond.
Free E-Library Resources
We provide free online e-libraries accessible for elders in senior care homes & hospices, first read in Nepal & India. This includes access to audiobooks, e-books, digital literacy resources and calming music for a daily dose of comfort.
Sunny Salutations Cards
Originally created in lieu of COVID-19, our fulfillment system allows anyone to submit youth-crafted personalized, get-well cards: from youth, for elders. We're proud to have youth reach4,600 elders through these kind-hearted messages.
Harmony Circles
Powered by our partnerships with 3 music therapy non-profit organizations across South Korea, UK, and US, this program brings together elders and youth for folk music sing-alongs and diverse music therapy performances.
Tech, Together
Youth problem-solvers host in-person & Zoom workshops teaching elders to use video calls, identify potential online scams, and navigate social media to connect with their loved ones.
The Memory Project
High school & middle (secondary) school students are paired with seniors to share stories and transcribe their life experiences into bound memoirs, preserving memories for families and friends.
Art & Collage Gallery
Elderly and youth collaborate on mixed-media creations to celebrate our lived experiences. With the strength of intergenerational community, we create works of art, such as paintings, short films, digital collages, and creative writing pieces.
