Friendly visitor needed for an 80-year-old neighbor in Tamale
Looking for a friendly person in Tamale to visit Francis once a week.
🇬🇭 NT-618-5467, Tamale, Northern, Ghana714 views
I'm writing for my neighbor Francis, who's 80. Francis lives alone in Tamale, and lost a son last year. The nearest family lives several hours away.
Francis loves baking, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Wednesday 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.
If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.

rooting for you, Joseph. Gave what I could, wish it was more. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money!
Wishing you peace, Joseph. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Love from Grand Rapids.
wishing you peace. I hope things turn around soon. God bless.
looking forward to the next update. Sent it to 38 people at work. Take care
Keep going. Hope this works out for you. My colleague had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Thinking of Tamale
Wishing you the best, Joseph. Hope this works out for you. Sent it to 36 people at work. Love from Pune.
