Whoever said that Jollibee is just for kids? Last Saturday, Jollibee proved that this Pinoy family fave is for kids of all ages – from 1 to 100! Lolos and Lolas in different homes for the elderly across Manila and nearby provinces were given a jolly treat. I was able to join Jollibee in honoring the grandparents at Kanlungan ni Maria in Antipolo City. It certainly was a worthwhile Saturday morning.
It’s a bit disheartening that some of our elderly have been abandoned or neglected by their own family. It is, however, inspiring that despite all they have gone through, the Lolos and Lolas in these homes have so much hope and joy.
Kanlungan ni Maria provides a home environment to the elderly. Nurturing staff and volunteers provide them with love, care, and attention giving them a chance to live better and dignified lives. The home helps locate families and relatives for the purpose of reconciliation. Those who have no family members or relatives stay in Kanlungan ni Maria where all their daily needs are well-provided for.
The lolas and lolas in Kanlungan ni Maria have so many wonderful stories to share. Some may bring tears to your eyes but most of them have only joyful memories to share. Show them some love by visiting them at #17 Lanzones Road, Nayong Silangan, Antipolo City. Call 650-8102 / 0915-6002631 or email [email protected] to coordinate your visit with their caring staff.
