A weekly visit for Gifty, 89, who lives alone in Accra
An hour a week, a chat, and a cup of tea - that's all Gifty is asking for.

I'm writing for my neighbor Gifty, who's 89. Gifty lives alone in Accra, and lost a lifelong friend last year. The nearest family lives several hours away.
Gifty loves local history, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Wednesday 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.
Glad we found this place.

Sending good thoughts. Shared this with my family. Thinking of Accra.
It takes guts to ask. Well done. Greetings from Toronto.
