Friendly visitor needed for a 73-year-old neighbor in Nairobi
Faith lives alone and has no family nearby; a weekly hour of conversation would transform the week.

I'm writing for my neighbor Faith, who's 73. Faith lives alone in Nairobi, and lost a son last year. The nearest family lives a long flight away.
Faith loves gardening, 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.
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

thinking of you and your family. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. Please keep us posted. God bless
So sorry you're going through this, Lucy. Shared it with a few friends. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Take care
