Eldercare Plus aims to foster meaningful connections between seniors and students by developing a structured mentorship framework. The project seeks to match seniors with students based on shared professional fields, life experiences, or personal interests. The goal is to create a supportive environment where both parties can benefit from shared knowledge and experiences. Students will begin by researching existing mentorship programs to identify best practices and successful strategies. They will then analyze how these can be adapted to align with Eldercare Plus's mission of enhancing the quality of life for seniors. The project will culminate in a comprehensive proposal that outlines a tailored mentorship strategy, ensuring it is both practical and impactful for the community.

The project will result in a detailed proposal for a mentorship framework tailored to Eldercare Plus. Deliverables include a report on best practices from existing mentorship programs, a strategic plan for implementation, and a presentation summarizing the proposed framework. The proposal will also include recommendations for matching criteria and methods for evaluating the program's success.
