StudentsCare Information

StudentsCare is a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that connects undergraduate students nationwide with hospitalized children, isolated seniors, and their families, to provide fun, friendship and support. Through consistent visits and activities, students help reduce social isolation and loneliness among these vulnerable populations. Our Senior Buddy Program facilitates meaningful intergenerational connections that enrich seniors’ lives and fosters a sense of belonging, while also deepening students’ empathy, communication skills, and understanding of aging. Our Hospital Buddy Program fosters joyful, child-centered connections that brighten the days of hospitalized kids and provide emotional comfort, while helping student volunteers build empathy, resilience, and hands-on experience supporting children and families in medical settings. Together, these programs reflect StudentsCare’s commitment to compassionate service, meaningful mentorship, and stronger, more connected communities nationwide.
