The biggest complaint of the elders of our family is that they get separated. There was no one to talk to them. All facilities are available, but the fear of solitude haunts them the most. Now the trend of old age ashram is also increasing rapidly where elderly people are kept. The children pay the fees of the ashram and the elderly parents spend their lives there. Goodfellows Startup solves this problem because its job is to connect senior citizens with youth. Its purpose is that age may become a victim of old age, but mind, thinking and thoughts should always remain young.

goodfellows work
Goodfellow’s work is very interesting. This startup provides a company to the elderly to get rid of solitude. To end the solitude of the elderly, it matches the people of the new generation. This startup provides a subscription based service in which young college students are called Good Fellows. These good fellows go for a walk with the elderly, talk to them or go to the movies. This is done so that the solitude of the elderly is ended, they are engaged in conversation so that there is no feeling of loneliness. Currently, this service is being provided only in Mumbai, but the work of Goodfellows Startup is likely to start in other cities.
There are many non-profit organizations run in the country for senior citizens or elderly people. Many organizations are already engaged in this work and new organizations are also being formed. Many programs are also run to serve the elderly and to end the isolation, but the success rate is very low. In this situation, a new hope has arisen from the goodfellows invested by Ratan Tata.
