About Us

Friends & Co, formerly Little Brothers – Friends of the Elderly, MN, has served older adults in Minnesota for over 50 years. We foster meaningful connections for older adults. Maybe you’re an older adult or know someone that is? We offer the following free services. Coffee Talk, a quick drop-in chat line, Phone and Visiting companionship services, and a Cards Connect service. Something for everyone.

Whatever you choose, Friends & Co is the place to be. At Friends & Co, our purpose is to create meaningful connections that enrich peoples’ lives and provide a sense of belonging that nourishes all of us, which is a fundamental human need.

Connections

Although we foster meaningful connections, not everyone is ready to make that commitment. If this is you, you might enjoy the ease of our drop-in chat line, Coffee Talk. Coffee Talk is a commitment-free drop-in chat line when a friendly voice is needed the most.

Companionship

If companionship is something you're looking for, we offer both Phone Companion and Visiting Companion services for lasting friendships that help you feel more vibrant, connected, and engaged.

Community

Having a sense of belonging is a fundamental human need that nourishes us. A sense of belonging promotes wellness for all. At Friends & Co, everyone gets to experience a sense of belonging and social connection, living their best lives.
