## Give a meal, give a connection The Thuisgekookt Foundation matches volunteer home cooks with neighbours for whom cooking every day is too much of a challenge, for example, due to illness, old age or a physical or mental disability. For Frans (85), whose life has become a lot quieter since his wife passed away, the weekly meal prepared by his home cook is about more than just food. It brings him a sense of companionship. Frans: “It’s a moment of genuine connection, from person to person. The loneliness I sometimes feel is an unpleasant sensation, and it’s precisely that extra attention that helps combat it.” A donation to the Thuisgekookt Foundation helps to make more of these encounters between neighbours possible. Together, we can ensure that healthy food and meaningful social interaction are accessible to everyone in the Netherlands.
