WhatsApp is a popular messaging app. In collaboration with Chai Wan Neighborhood Elderly Centre, Chinese YMCA of Hong Kong, volunteers will become IT mentors to explore the trendy and popular new functions in WhatsApp, such as WhatsApp stickers and WhatsApp Channels, with older people. Let's help older people overcome the technological divide and become tech-savvy individuals!
活動以WhatsApp為主題，你會向長者介紹WhatsApp中的嶄新元素，學習最新的WhatsApp頻道功能，讓他們瀏覽不同頻道，緊貼最新時事資訊，及以小遊戲方式教導他們製作屬於自己的WhatsApp貼圖，發揮創意之餘，亦可豐富聊天訊息，改善數碼鴻溝。
