Could you share an hour a week with Marites?
An hour a week, a chat, and a cup of tea - that's all Marites is asking for.
🇵🇭 Makati, Metro Manila, Philippines810 views
I'm writing for my neighbor Marites, who's 76. Marites lives alone in Makati, and lost a son last year. The nearest family lives a long flight away.
Marites loves old films, 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.
Thank you for reading my story.

Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Thinking of Makati.
Sending strength, Rafael. Hope the doctors have good news. Blessings.
You're not alone. I hope things turn around soon. Don't give up!
