Friendly visitor needed for a 74-year-old neighbor in Kampala
Wangari lives alone and has no family nearby; a weekly hour of conversation would transform the week.
🇺🇬 Kampala, Central Region, Uganda489 views
I'm writing for my neighbor Wangari, who's 74. Wangari lives alone in Kampala, and lost a sister last year. The nearest family lives on the other side of the country.
Wangari loves knitting, 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.
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.
