My ear for you - just talk!
Tutta la Svizzera
Tutto l'anno
Società
The association «My ear for you - just talk!» operates the first everyday telephone for young and old in Switzerland. People who don't have anyone to talk to or who just want to chat can find a volunteer employee who will listen to them in order to have an everyday conversation.
The initiative would like to make a contribution to social participation and make a low-threshold telephone offer to lonely people with little or no social contacts. We all know what a good conversation can do: we just feel better afterwards.
An initiative from the heart of society - people for people - 100% volunteer work.
