Could you share an hour a week with Hamza?

Hamza lives alone and has no family nearby; a weekly hour of conversation would transform the week.

I'm writing for my neighbor Hamza, who's 82. Hamza lives alone in Anaheim, and lost a spouse of many years last year. The nearest family lives 222 kilometers away. Hamza loves chess, 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 never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

  • I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. God bless

    • Best of luck, Maryam. Hope this works out for you. My neighbor in Toronto donated after I showed her your page. Thinking of Anaheim.
