A place of communication for lonely old people. 4

Older people face new challenges as they retire. One of them is social isolation. According to research by the Cambridge Institute of Technology, social isolation and hunger leave the same neural follows in the human brain. If a person is in this state for a long time, it leads to depression, further development of various diseases and general malaise. Since 2001, the Fund has been helping lonely old people to lead an active life thanks to the Second Youth club.

Over the years, the Club has created within its walls a large and friendly "family" of lonely grandparents who need communication, care and daily social and psychological support. They can meet regularly, celebrate holidays and memorable dates together, engage in creativity, handicrafts, sing and actively spend their leisure time. Over the years, most of them have become native people who support each other in joy, in trouble, and help to cope with diseases and problems.

For several years now, the Club has not had a permanent financial donor. Every day they have to look for funds so that he could continue working. To pay the rent of the Club's premises for two months, we need to collect UAH 13 125. Please support us! Even a small donation in the amount of the cost of a cup of coffee or a cake will do a great good deed – it will help the old people not be left alone with their loneliness and helplessness.
