Peru: Taking care of the loneliest people

Peru: Taking care of the loneliest people

Jan 9, 2025 | Sociale, Testimonianze di Vita

“Let’s start from the least, from those who are rejected and abandoned by society.” This is how the “Chiara Lubich” Hogar Centre for the elderly began in the Peruvian Amazon. A place where, thanks to the generosity of a family, together with the Focolare community, they welcome elderly people who are abandoned, who need help, who need to be cared for, who need a hot meal or simply who need the warmth of a family.
