A Day in the Nursing Home with Gate Keepers

On August 31, 2024, the Gate Charity team paid a heartfelt visit to the Göztepe Semiha Şakir Nursing Home in Istanbul. The event was designed to bring joy and alleviate loneliness among the elderly residents, providing them with a memorable day of interaction and care. The visit also aimed to strengthen the relationship between Gate Charity and the community, emphasizing the organization’s commitment to social responsibility.

Upon arrival, the Gate team engaged the residents in various activities designed to stimulate both mental and social well-being.

Charades added a lively and interactive element, allowing residents to bond over shared laughter and playful guessing. The day concluded with puzzle-making sessions, which not only entertained but also helped improve the residents’ motor skills and patience.

In addition to the activities, Gate Charity took the opportunity to assess the needs of the nursing home. Recognizing the importance of meeting these needs, the team provided essential support, including the donation of underwear to all 57 residents. This gesture was a small but significant way to improve the daily lives of the elderly and demonstrate Gate.io’s dedication to giving back to society.
