What we do

We aim to provide and share a simple and enjoyable solution to socialize for those most in need, meanwhile raising awareness on the highly important topic of loneliness. Even while technology has made us hyperconnected, the problem is growing and it’s obvious that humans need real interactions to build authentic relationships (belonging). Through our campaigns and studies we also aim to raise awareness on the topic of loneliness on a global scale resulting in a much needed and long lasting impact on our society.

Our Story

We both come from large families where the center of our upbringing was to have respect for our seniors and helping society in the best possible way. Therefor it has come very natural to us to start this non-profit foundation, with the support of Fortuite. We have always wanted to give back to the ones who have given us so much, it’s the recognition and appreciation our seniors deserve.

In addition to this, we know that loneliness affects all of us regardless of our age and we have experienced first hand the impact loneliness and social isolation has on people. We wish to combat this issue by creating a simple solution for people to socialize and build long lasting and meaningful relationships, across all generations.

We look forward to building a better world with you
