There is actually an international NGO, Little Brothers - Friends of the Elderly [0], that exists exactly to help lonely elderly people meet others and have a new social life. There are several chapters in the USA [1].
While not very well known, it's a really old NGO, started in 1946 in Switzerland, with the US wing existing since 1959.
