Saskatoon company puts phones in the hands of seniors isolated by COVID-19


SASKATOON —
A Saskatoon company is helping seniors stay connected during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Bolt Mobile has launched Operation Lifeline. Old phones are being refurbished and sanitized and then donated to people without phones who are isolated in seniors’ homes and hospitals.

People receiving the phones will be able to Skype or Facetime, reconnecting them with those they love during this time of separation.

Hospitals and care homes are not receiving guests in order to curtail the spread of the virus.

The company says demand is high and more phones are needed.

More details to come.
