A szervezet leírása

"Mimi" is a non-profit organization that aims to meet the loneliness of the elderly through the creation and development of an intergenerational program. The services of the "Mimi" are mainly directed to the support and / or help to the elderly, which are carried out voluntarily.
We have a team of volunteers who help the elderly in their day-to-day tasks, such as going to the doctor, supermarket, finances, among others, thus making the elderly feel more autonomous and more useful to society in which is inserted. Volunteers add value to the project because they spend a little of their time helping isolated and sad elderly people, giving them love and companionship. Because we also believe that the intergenerational meeting is beneficial for young and old people, providing learning for both parties.
Our goals are:
1) To provide the solitude of the isolated elderly, through a personalized accompaniment.
2) Provide the elderly with the practice of activities that make it possible to strengthen their social participation, enjoy a life in harmony with their aging process, allowing them to fully exercise their status as a citizen.
