Could you share an hour a week with Siddharth?

Siddharth lives alone and has no family nearby; a weekly hour of conversation would transform the week.

I'm writing for my neighbor Siddharth, who's 76. Siddharth lives alone in Varanasi, and lost a sister last year. The nearest family lives 440 kilometers away. Siddharth loves old films, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Thursday 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 hope life is good to you.

  • Good luck, Kalyani. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust.

        • stay strong. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry.
