I started this because I watch my own grandfather sit alone by the window waiting for a phone call that never comes. Reading the messages you have left about your own loved ones breaks my heart but fuels the work we are doing to ensure no one is forgotten.

Seeing this grow so quickly reminds me of the afternoons I spent watching my own grandfather drift further away from the world outside his window. Your support proves that people truly care about the elders in our community who feel forgotten. This momentum gives me hope that we can finally break through the silence.
