This document proposes a project called Colloquium to decrease loneliness and social isolation among elderly people. The project will connect elderly individuals through a letter writing service by matching people with similar hobbies, experiences and beliefs. It aims to help elderly people cope with difficulties like loss and loneliness by making them aware that their lives were meaningful and aging is an opportunity rather than something bad. The letter writing service will be supplemented by a weekly newsletter containing content tailored for seniors to encourage continued interaction and engagement.
