reach someone 

1. Lit. to travel up to or as far as someone. Iran until I reached her just in time to save her from going over the cliff.

2. Fig. to manage to be understood by someone; to have one's message appreciated by someone. If we could only reach them with our message, we might be able to convince them to stay in school.
