(לב) מִפְּנֵ֤י שֵׂיבָה֙ תָּק֔וּם וְהָדַרְתָּ֖ פְּנֵ֣י זָקֵ֑ן וְיָרֵ֥אתָ מֵּאֱלֹקֶ֖יךָ אֲנִ֥י ה'׃
‘You shall rise up before the gray head, and honor the face of an old man, and you shall fear your God. I am Yahweh
Vision
We want to support the vision of creating cities without loneliness. Perach Zahav is all about building the foundations for a community support network, with aim of easing the severe consequences of loneliness which impacts approximately half of the elderly generation in the Western World.
The connections will contribute both the younger and the older participants.
