The Techie Senior Citizens and Retirees PH Group is a community page on Facebook that users can join to stay updated on the latest events hosted by Kairos I.T. Services. Members of the group will also have access to news and trivia that are useful for senior citizens and/or retirees.

While the official Techie Seniors Facebook page serves to share more information about the organization and its events, the Facebook group was created especially for members. The group is where they can have more in-depth discussions about digital concerns.

Kairos I.T. Services is dedicated to providing its Techie Seniors with a safe environment to learn. It is important to follow these simple steps diligently to keep the community safe and informative. These steps filter out scammers, fake accounts, et cetera.

We have a quick video tutorial, and text/image instructions are also available.

Q: What’s the difference between a Facebook Page and a Facebook Group?

A: A Facebook Page is designed to the official profile for entities such as celebrities, businesses or organizations, allowing Facebook users to connect with those entities and receive updates from—and interact with—them.

A Facebook Group is an ‘online space’ where people can share common interests and help each other, or come together around a common cause and discuss objectives, issues, advocacy measures, etc.
