Could you share an hour a week with Balaji?
Balaji lives alone and has no family nearby; a weekly hour of conversation would transform the week.

I'm writing for my neighbor Balaji, who's 77. Balaji lives alone in Muzaffarpur, and lost a spouse of many years last year. The nearest family lives 396 kilometers away.
Balaji loves chess, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Friday 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 never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

Wishing you peace, Nithya. Shared this with my family. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry.
Thinking of you. I hope things turn around soon. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Thinking of Muzaffarpur
Thanks for sharing this, Nithya. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick
everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I went through something like this 12 years ago and strangers helped me out. Greetings from Barcelona.
