Expanding our services to Carnation and Fall City

We've just started expanding our services to Carnation and Fall City.
One of our new clients from this area is going blind from macular degeneration. She has COPD and is on oxygen. She is also very hard of hearing.
She gets help from her family for tasks like shopping and transportation. But she is very isolated while they are at work and school. She tried getting a ride to the local senior center, but her hearing loss made it difficult for her. She needs someone to visit with her one-on-one, in a quieter environment, and where she can see, as best as she can, the person speaking to her.
We've just started to approach the local congregations to try to find her visitor. Sometimes, all an elderly and disabled person needs is a friend.
Your support makes finding these friends possible - thank you!
