According to research, loneliness is common among elderlies especially those living alone.
Lee Kum Kee Family Foundation is collaborating with Hong Kong Young Women’s Christian Association for a two-year project, “Picture book of my Grandparents”, which aims to encourage intergenerational connections and reduce elderlies’ loneliness through different activities including picture book training by letting grandparents telling grandchildren their own stories. Through this project, we would also like to arouse children’s curiosity about their grandparents and increase the understanding of their clan.
