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

I'm writing for my neighbor Shanice, who's 78. Shanice lives alone in Ekurhuleni, and lost a sister last year. The nearest family lives a long flight away.
Shanice loves crossword puzzles, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Friday 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.
Thanks for being kind about this.

Your post was clear and honest. We're a small family in Erie but we're thinking of you. God bless.
stay strong, Pravin. Your post was clear and honest. My husband and I read this together. Greetings from Toledo.
keep going. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Greetings from Katowice.
Thanks for sharing this, Pravin. Wishing Shanice a smooth procedure and a full recovery. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Love from El Paso.
Best of luck, Pravin. Shared it with a few friends. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Thinking of Ekurhuleni.
