A weekly visit for Caio, 78, who lives alone in Guarulhos

An hour a week, a chat, and a cup of tea - that's all Caio is asking for.

Guarulhos
I'm writing for my neighbor Caio, who's 78. Caio lives alone in Guarulhos, and lost a son last year. The nearest family lives on the other side of the country. Caio loves birdwatching, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Saturday afternoon, would mean the world. We can also arrange a phone call if you can't visit in person. All visitors will be introduced by me and I'll be there at the first meeting. I'll share references and, if you'd like, a short orientation from the local befriending charity. No special skills are needed - just kindness and patience. Thanks for being kind about this.

    shared this with my family. My neighbor in Greensboro donated after I showed her your page. Love from Greensboro.
