Our elderly program is based on helping out in a shelter.
Our main objective is to make these people feel important and loved. We also purport to bring a new meaning to the lives of elder individuals who have suffered in many ways. We aim to be part of the process of regaining self-esteem and feeling valuable. Our elderly program is set in a calm and beautiful country house 20 minutes away from the city (IBAGUE) in a beautiful landscape surrounded by mountains.
The activities within this program include:
- Helping out in the kitchen, and in a little plantation that we have.
- Engaging in different types of activities which will stimulate their minds and bodies.
- Contributing to the process of making them feel an important part of society again.
- Helping with the maintenance of the home.
- Administrating the home, taking note of what is needed, buying, arranging and doing logistics.
- Organizing fund-raising and all types of activities that will help in the growth and development of the shelter.
- Planning and doing all the promotion, communication and press releases for the shelter.
