Companionship wanted: Kelechi's baking and a cup of tea
Kelechi lives alone and has no family nearby; a weekly hour of conversation would transform the week.
🇳🇬 Lagos, Lagos, Nigeria146 views
I'm writing for my neighbor Kelechi, who's 74. Kelechi lives alone in Lagos, and lost a son last year. The nearest family lives 403 kilometers away.
Kelechi 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.
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

Sending good thoughts, Samuel. Hope you get there. My father had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Greetings from San Francisco.
Sending love. Get well soon. I'm in teaching myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Greetings from Busan.
Sending love. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. We're a small family in Accra but we're thinking of you
