Absolutely - I think the temptation is to underestimate how many folks would love to get involved in something positive and rewarding like this. I've spoken about it in person with friends who I thought would have no interest, only for them to get even more sucked in than I am :). Next step - convincing my parents to get involved...

Ha ha, my Mum is 78 years old but she is quite tech savvy for her age and uses her computer every day, when her old computer broke I gave her my i7-3700k (excuse to upgrade!) and asked if when she was using it she would like to run BOINC; when I explained she could contribute to projects like WCG she was very happy so long as I managed it for her.
First step is to get Mum onto Steemit I think... This is probably more her bag - she's into all kinds of creative endeavours and would love the opportunity to share her work with a wider audience. I'm sure she'd be readily convinced to donate her computing power, too - provided, as is your case, I manage it for her :)
Yeah sounds like a no brainer, just help her keep her keys safe
