You really love to see humans coming together to bring joy to eachother during a time of crisis and thats exactly what these Canadian Highschool students are doing with their new hotline! The free hotline 1-877-JOY-4ALL offers anyone who calls jokes, kind messages, letters, music, poetry and recordings of stories on the other line. The goal of this project is to keep everyone happy while we all stay quarantined during the coronavirus pandemic.
On their website they express that they simply just want to help and they know how hard isolation can be for some people:
During these challenging times and ongoing public health measures, we know that it is especially difficult for seniors and folks experiencing isolation. We have created a hotline to bring joy to those in isolation. Anyone can call to add a little joy! When you dial our local and toll-free numbers, you will be able to choose from a number of pre-recorded options so that you can listen to stories, kind messages, jokes, and more!
What an amazing thing these kids are doing to help out those lonely during these times.
