The model that became viral in networks cleaning the house of people with depression

Ellen Milgrau

Ellen Milgrau cleans the homes of people who have stopped doing so because of depression. Accumulated dishes, dirty clothes, food remains in the rooms, countless cockroaches and even larvae. These are some of the things that the Brazilian model, presenter and singer Ellen Milgrau found in the homes she visited in recent weeks.

She had gone there with one goal: to clean these houses to improve the quality of life for its residents, who are struggling with depression.
Due to lack of encouragement, many of them had not been able to do the cleaning. “Sometimes the person cannot even get up to take a shower. There are situations in which it is not even fair to call a cleaning lady because the dirt is very critical,” the model tells BBC News Brazil.
