At Impactt Kids, we believe that creating real change starts with education — not just for the next generation, but for all generations. That’s why we’re so excited to announce our expansion into Philadelphia, Pennsylvania!
To kick off our work in this vibrant new community, our amazing Chapter Lead, Advay Agrawal, hosted a Scam Awareness Lecture at several senior centers throughout the city. His sessions focused on empowering seniors with the tools they need to recognize scams, avoid fraud, and protect their personal information.
Why This Matters
Scams that target senior citizens are unfortunately on the rise. From phone scams to online fraud, many seniors are at risk simply because they may not always be familiar with the latest technology tricks. Educating them is not just about teaching — it's about giving them back their sense of security and confidence.
Through this lecture, Advay was able to:
Explain the most common types of scams seniors might encounter
Share simple, practical ways to stay safe online and offline
Answer individual questions and provide personalized advice
Build awareness about resources available if someone falls victim to fraud
The Impact
The energy during the lectures was incredible. Many attendees shared their own experiences and expressed gratitude for the clear, easy-to-understand information. For some, this was the first time anyone had walked them through scam prevention in a way that felt accessible and non-intimidating.
This initiative not only protects individuals — it strengthens entire communities. When seniors feel empowered and informed, they are more connected, confident, and resilient.
Looking Ahead
Our expansion to Philadelphia is just the beginning. At Impactt Kids, we’re committed to growing programs that serve every generation — from teaching coding and debate skills to young students, to hosting scam prevention workshops for seniors.
We believe that community empowerment has no age limit. Together, we can build a safer, stronger future for everyone.
Stay tuned for more updates as we continue to expand our impact across new cities!
