Could you share an hour a week with Varun?
An hour a week, a chat, and a cup of tea - that's all Varun is asking for.

I'm writing for my neighbor Varun, who's 79. Varun lives alone in Nagpur, and lost a spouse of many years last year. The nearest family lives a long flight away.
Varun loves chess, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Saturday 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.

Hope it all works out. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I hope January is when things finally get easier.
Thinking of you, Suresh. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. I'm in retail myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Love from Patna.
Thinking of you and your family, Suresh. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. My mother had a similar thing happen so this one hit home.
Thinking of you and your family, Suresh. Looking forward to the next update!
It takes guts to ask. Well done. Greetings from Los Angeles!
Rooting for you. Hope you get there. Thinking of Nagpur.

Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. My father had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. God bless.
