FISCO

Our Story

In the summer of 2010, Rita Shah, a dedicated social worker in Burlington, Massachusetts, recognized the profound loneliness experienced by her parents-in-law and other older family members, immigrants from India. To combat this isolation, she organized a group of seniors to meet regularly, share meals, and cultivate friendships. With the support of passionate community leaders like Mahendra Jhaveri, Ramesh Naidu, Dinesh Shah, and Suryakant Gandhi, the Friends of Indian Senior Citizens Organization (FISCO) was born. This nonprofit organization aims to assist in the socialization of older Asian Indians, fostering connections and reducing isolation.
