A weekly visit for Gianna, 73, who lives alone in Caloocan

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

I'm writing for my neighbor Gianna, who's 73. Gianna lives alone in Caloocan, and lost a sister last year. The nearest family lives 398 kilometers away. Gianna loves cricket, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Thursday 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. If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.

  • So sorry you're going through this, Pedro. It takes guts to ask. Well done. My neighbor in Hồ Chí Minh City donated after I showed her your page

    • Thinking of you, Pedro. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Put this on a community board in Mohammedia this morning. Thinking of Caloocan.
