A weekly visit for Eunice, 75, who lives alone in Kampala
Looking for a friendly person in Kampala to visit Eunice once a week.
🇺🇬 Kampala, Central Region, Uganda1,877 views
I'm writing for my neighbor Eunice, who's 75. Eunice lives alone in Kampala, and lost a lifelong friend last year. The nearest family lives a long flight away.
Eunice loves local history, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Sunday 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.
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.
- effort
- 1 hour a week
