Friendly visitor needed for an 80-year-old neighbor in Ahmedabad

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

I'm writing for my neighbor Shweta, who's 80. Shweta lives alone in Ahmedabad, and lost a spouse of many years last year. The nearest family lives a long flight away. Shweta loves knitting, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Wednesday 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. Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

  • Wishing you the best, Tarun. This could happen to any of us. My neighbor in Hawassa donated after I showed her your page!

    • Praying for you. Shared this with my family. Thinking of Ahmedabad
