Could you share an hour a week with Flávio?
An hour a week, a chat, and a cup of tea - that's all Flávio is asking for.

I'm writing for my neighbor Flávio, who's 81. Flávio lives alone in Ribeirão Preto, and lost a sister last year. The nearest family lives several hours away.
Flávio loves local history, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Monday 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.

Good luck, Kelly. I hope things turn around soon.
