    This fundraiser will benefit

    Deepak Singh

    from Delhi

One of my close friends Deepak Singh who is also my colleague at work is suffering from Blood Cancer. He has used up all his savings in the current treatment and is advised to do bone marrow transplant in April. I need help from everyone of you who is reading this to gather funds of Rs.20,00,000 which would help him undergo the advised treatment. Alone it would be a huge burden for him but if we all stand by him he would be able to fight the cancer and the condition that he is facing, request all to be generous and help out!!
