Papa Stock

Papa is a platform that connects college students to senior citizens for companionship and assistance.

Its platform connects college and nursing students to older adults who need assistance with transportation, house chores, technology lessons, and other services that enable older adults to stay independent while living securely and happily at home.

Papa's mission is to support families throughout the aging journey.

Founded in 2017 in Miami, FL, Papa began due to a personal need that Andrew Parker, CEO and Founder of Papa, had with his own family.

Recognizing the extreme difficulty associated with juggling daily life and senior family member’s needs, Papa was initially built to support Andrew’s own grandfather. Andrew and his family recognized how impactful and positive it was to connect their grandfather with a young, energetic, and enthusiastic individual. After the first visit, he knew he had something special to offer other families with the same need.
