The project

Solution

- give seniors a renewed desire to get out of the house to go to restaurants. Getting moving helps maintain autonomy;
- regain self-esteem: isolated seniors have regained a taste for getting ready before going out to eat.
- create social, local and intergenerational links;
- restore seniors' desire to eat healthily and, in so doing, combat undernutrition.

Why we love it?

What we love about Etoilés&Solidaires is the innovative idea of breaking down the isolation of our seniors by putting them in touch with gourmet chefs, creating surprising yet profoundly enriching encounters.

This lunch was a moment out of time. Some days leave a special mark. I had the privilege of experiencing a rare, suspended, almost unreal moment. Simple, profound sharing, heart-warming conversations.
