A community day care center intended for older persons was officially opened in Budești commune of Chisinau municipality. The institution is the place where older people can receive free social, psychological and legal assistance. The center will host meetings between generations and an exchange of experience with young people. The institution also has a hall where older people will be able to use a computer. Ten notebooks were donated to the center by the National Alliance of YMCA Moldova, which is a partner of the Chisinau City Hall, IPN reports.

“We rejoice at any project that we implement in suburban settlements. There are many initiatives we support financially in the 18 suburban localities of the municipality of Chisinau, such as road repair, construction of water supply and sewerage networks, repair and building of kindergartens and schools and modernization of street lighting, so as to make our life better in these difficult times,” said mayor Ion Ceban.

The Chisinau City Hall’s financial support for this project came to 1.9 million lei.
