Become a buddy

Be the person you once needed.

A few hours a month, on video calls, for a woman who needs one. No teaching background, no therapy training. A friend.

Become a buddy

A short form. Every application is read by a person.

What you'd actually do

Meet her. Listen. Show up again.

A video call, at a rhythm you both choose. You are not fixing her life. You are being in it, while she builds it back.

Not a teacher.
Not a therapist.
Not a saint.

A friend.

A woman who remembers what new feels like, or can imagine it, and shows up anyway. That is the whole qualification.

And if something comes up that is bigger than a friendship, you hand it to us. You are never left holding it alone.

Who you'd meet.

Women from Ukraine and from across Latin America, wherever they are. Each woman tells us about herself, and TEEI helps her find a buddy, looking at city, language, and the things you both care about.

What it looks like is smaller than you might think. A message on a Tuesday. A call that runs long. A question that is easier with company, a laugh at the end of a hard week. Small, ordinary things, which is exactly the point.

And somewhere along the way you will notice it goes both ways: you have made a friend too.

Ти не сама.
No estás sola.

You are not alone. The words she hears first. From you.

You are backed the whole way.

Supported

A short form

Every application is reviewed by a person before anyone is matched. Buddies are women, 18 and over.

Your call, always

Matches fit your city, language, and time. You accept or decline. Nothing is automatic.

Never alone with it

Guidelines at onboarding, us behind you throughout, and an easy way out if a match is not right.

You meet on video, through the programme. How often you meet, and for how long, is a rhythm you and she choose together.
