Cyber-Celebrate the Season

Technology can help you connect, give back, and have fun this holiday season, no matter how you choose to celebrate.  

Host a virtual party 

Connect with loved ones near and far via video chat! Use free tools like Random Trivia Generator and Teleparty to play games or watch movies together or take turns telling stories around a virtual fireplace. Don’t forget to add a festive Zoom background! 

Give back 

In the season of gratitude and giving, consider donating what you can to those who need it. Find your local food bank using a search engine sponsored by Feeding America or make an appointment to donate blood to the American Red Cross. You can also buy toys or gifts for children and teens involved with the Massachusetts Department of Children and Families through Wonderfund’s Amazon wishlist.

Get cooking 

While you can’t cook online yet, you can find some incredible recipes there. ITS recommends the gojuchang caramel cookies from NYT Cooking. You can also check out the holiday recipes thread in the Foodies of Clark team here. Or, if you prefer to stick to take-out, check out ITS favorite video game Overcooked! (available on Steam, XBox, PlayStation and Nintendo Switch).  

From all of us at ITS, have a happy & healthy holiday season! 😊
