Garbine Muguruza is spending this complicated time affected by the Coronavirus pandemic at Lake Geneva. While the Spanish sensation is keeping her fitness, she is also helping the people that are currently struggling.
The former world no.1 spent some time talking with people in need helping the cause of the noble Fundación Caser that helps via phone or chat the people in need (for free).
The Spaniard surprised a 70-year-old white sports fan with a lovely video-chat. Muguruza commented:
“These days I have had the opportunity to get up close to the impressive work he does @fundacioncaser attending in its service of accompanying telephone to those who need it. Is free. Thanks to all the professionals and volunteers who make this work possible.”
