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

I'm writing for my neighbor Peace, who's 75. Peace lives alone in Lagos, and lost a son last year. The nearest family lives a long flight away.
Peace loves chess, 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.
Thank you for reading my story.

Stay strong, Isaac. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Blessings.
thinking of you. Hope you get there. After 20 years in nursing I know how hard it's to ask for anything
Sending good thoughts. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. Wish I lived closer to Belo Horizonte so I could bring a meal. Love from Obuasi.
Take care, Isaac. Hope you get there. After 7 years in social work I know how hard it's to ask for anything.
Wishing you peace, Isaac. This could happen to any of us. My neighbor in Cairo donated after I showed her your page.
