The leaves look like African violet. This plant needs water

I am leaning toward this being in the Kalanchoe family--because of the thin, light green spindly stalk. The leaves look like they are scalloped. Are they? Are they smooth or do they feel textured like suede? Has it ever flowered? Kalanchoe get lovely tiny flower bunches. Mine are red and orange. There are a bunch of varieties of these lovely plants if that is what you have.

Since the leaves are not clear in the photo, maybe if you google with your plant next to you, you can confirm.

Post back after you check. If that is what you have, they are a hardy plant and require little effort. Weekly water, partial sun and you are off and running. It does look like it needs a drink at the moment!! Sending up good thoughts for it!

It could be a plectranthus amboinicus variegated (because of the white borders) or a Buddleja crispa 'Stone House Cottage'. To tell one from another rub one of its leaves if it leaves a strong smell of campher on your fingers, then it is a plectranthus.
