"Interaction" project!
“Interaction” is a project of great importance for not only us, but also the community of Hesed.
Elderly people need help with groceries, house chores just as they need a simple conversation with someone. Some ask to buy fruits, a newspaper or some pills and leave them behind the door, but some want to socialize, to play chess or share a cup of tea. In such cases, volunteers spend time with elderly without forgetting about the safety, to keep everyone healthy. Sometime volunteers propose an alternative option of connecting via internet with some of their old friends.
In return, we receive a never-ending shower of kind words. This inspires us and fills with energy for future visits.
We are one big family!
