A weekly visit for Hasan, 77, who lives alone in Istanbul
Looking for a friendly person in Istanbul to visit Hasan once a week.

I'm writing for my neighbor Hasan, who's 77. Hasan lives alone in Istanbul, and lost a lifelong friend last year. The nearest family lives 225 kilometers away.
Hasan loves baking, 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.
Thanks for being kind about this.

Take care. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My neighbor in Nairobi donated after I showed her your page. God bless.
Hang in there, Deniz. Wishing Hasan a smooth procedure and a full recovery. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend
Thinking of you, Deniz. Get well soon. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too.
Rooting for you, Deniz. Hope the doctors have good news. It's not much but it's yours.
Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Don't give up. Greetings from Shubra!
