Could you share an hour a week with Sofia?

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

I'm writing for my neighbor Sofia, who's 92. Sofia lives alone in Brescia, and lost a sister last year. The nearest family lives 486 kilometers away. Sofia loves baking, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Thursday 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 so much.

    keep going. Hope this works out for you. It's not much but it's yours. Blessings.

    • Hope it all works out, Ginevra. Gave what I could, wish it was more.

        look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. Love from Lille.

        • good luck. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. My neighbor in San Diego donated after I showed her your page.

          • Thinking of you, Ginevra. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I went through something like this 3 years ago and strangers helped me out. Take care
