A weekly visit for Arjun, 90, who lives alone in Vancouver
An hour a week, a chat, and a cup of tea - that's all Arjun is asking for.

I'm writing for my neighbor Arjun, who's 90. Arjun lives alone in Vancouver, and lost a sister last year. The nearest family lives 384 kilometers away.
Arjun loves knitting, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Monday 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.
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

Thinking of you. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. Put this on a community board in Thane this morning.
This could happen to any of us. I'm in engineering myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Thinking of Vancouver

Praying for you. Hope this works out for you. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Greetings from Manila.
