Mr. and Mrs. Brown live in South Seattle. They would like to invite someone to chat (聊天) with them
and help them to do the chores. Mrs. Brown is a kind, 71-year-old lady. She loves talking with others.
Mr. Brown is a little bit shy, but likes the idea of a helpful new friend. His legs hurt, so he can't walk very
well, but he can cook. An hour's housework, a little yard work and a little time chatting each day would
make a big difference in their lives!
If you are interested in helping them, please contact (联系) us to become a volunteer (志愿者). You
must be over 20 years old. Volunteer Chores Center No. 98, Mount Vernon Street, South Seattle Phone
