My Nonprofit Reviews

Rose, my Befriender, and I have a great time! I have taught her to knit and she has taught me to make amazing eggplant Parmesan. We have become dear friends and have helped each other through many ups and downs.
I think our ED, Kristin is doing a great job coming up with fun things for Befrienders to do. Rose and I are going to a play soon, as we both enjoy the theatre.

I have recently been matched with my second ‘friend’ through the Befrienders organization. My pal Rose is a feisty and funny woman from the Bronx who has family living nearby. She recently moved to Bozeman when her husband died of Covid this past spring. I’m teaching Rose to knit, and we love to talk about food and cooking and we tell each other family stories. While I feel that Befrienders helps an important population here to keep from dealing with loneliness, I have lived away from my own family for 39 years and Rose is like a mom to me. It’s a great Match!!
