For many young people during COVID-19, staying away from elderly loved ones felt like an impossible choice. But in Israel, a tech solution brought hope—and reunions.
Meet Raz Gal-Or, who hadn't hugged his grandma in nearly a year. Like millions globally, he feared exposing her to the virus. 'Every grocery run felt risky,' he shared. Then came Door2dor, an app connecting volunteers with seniors needing essentials, meds, or even emotional support.
The app, created by local developers, became a lifeline. Raz finally saw his grandmother safely, knowing volunteers would ensure her needs were met. 'It felt like a digital bridge,' he said. The initiative highlights how Gen-Z innovators are tackling real-world crises with empathy—and a few taps.
Stories like Raz’s remind us: even in isolation, technology can foster connection. Got a similar tale? Share it below!
