One of bhOndOO’s classmates at the undergraduate requires money for his blood cancer treatment. The details are in the excerpt from an email below. It does not matter whether you donate 1K or 1L, but, if possible, please do. Further, if you are aware of any organizations that may provide monetary help, do comment back.
Dear Friends,
This is a generous appeal to you all on monetary help as requisite for a very close friend of mine, Mr. Ashutosh Mishra, who is suffering from a very rare kind of Blood Cancer.
He is currently getting treatment from CMC Vellore for his illness which mandates him to undergo very painful process of chemotherapy every month. He has now been referred for Bone Marrow transplant as the only option for life and as you all can understand is extremely rare and cost intensive. Unfortunately, the treatment is not possible in India [As he needs donor from all over the world with perfect clinical match and then transplant] and he needs to fly to Australia for the treatment.
It is expected to cost 75-80 lacs and Ashutosh is currently running short by 40 lacs for the treatment. Hence, I request all to donate generously for his treatment to the best of amounts.
Request you all further to pass on the message amongst your friend network for the donation. Please do remember, every contribution of ours can save somebody’s life.
Following is the bank details of the person concerned.
