HANKServices is a unique initiative designed to bridge the gap between seniors and teens through the “Chores & Chat” program. With nearly 52 million seniors—comprising 20% of the U.S. population—and increasing life expectancy, many older adults live independently while struggling with feelings of isolation. HANKServices provides essential support by pairing vetted teens with seniors who need assistance with daily chores, fostering meaningful intergenerational relationships. This program not only helps seniors maintain their independence but also offers teens valuable life lessons and social engagement.
