Winnipeg, Manitoba has a large and growing senior population, and the city is also one of the most culturally diverse in Canada. Thousands of Winnipeg seniors — including many from Filipino, Ukrainian, German, Indigenous, and other communities — are eager to use technology to stay connected with family, access health information, and maintain their independence. Yet many feel intimidated by computers, especially when they can't easily find patient, affordable instruction.
IT Cares brings computer training directly to Winnipeg seniors at home — no driving in winter conditions, no unfamiliar environments, no intimidating shop counters. Our technicians work at whatever pace your parent needs, explain everything in plain everyday English, and genuinely enjoy helping older adults build confidence with technology. Whether your parent has never used the internet or just needs help with a new laptop, we are here to help across all of Manitoba.
You don't need to be in Winnipeg to arrange tech help for your parent. Whether you live in St. Vital, across Manitoba, or across the country, you can call us or book online and we will take care of everything. On the day of the session, we walk your parent through the connection process step by step — they never need to figure anything out on their own. Winnipeg's diverse community means we handle this kind of multi-generational booking every day.
All sessions delivered remotely — your parent stays home, warm and comfortable, while we help them learn.

Real feedback from seniors and family members across Winnipeg and Manitoba.
"My lola is 77 and moved from the Philippines to Winnipeg to live with us. She wanted to video call her sisters back home but was too scared to try on her own. IT Cares set up Zoom for her and taught her step by step. Now she calls Manila every week. The technician was so patient and kind."
"I'm 79 and live in the North End of Winnipeg. In winter, I can't easily get out. IT Cares came to me — well, they connected to my computer — and helped me set up online banking and showed me how to check my account. Never have to go to the branch in the cold anymore. Wonderful service."
"My Ukrainian grandmother in Selkirk was convinced a scammer was Microsoft. They had already connected to her computer. I called IT Cares from Winnipeg and they handled it all — cleaned her computer, secured her accounts, and most importantly showed her how to avoid it next time. Outstanding."
