Bus Accident Changes Everything
Donation protected
On the black day of 28th July 2018, 34 staff members of Dr. Balasaheb Sawant Konkan Krishi Vidyapeeth (BSKKV), Dapoli were going for a trip to Mahabaleshwar (hill station in Maharashtra, India).
The tragedy occurred when 33 people out of 34 were killed after their bus plunged into a 500 feet gorge in the mountainous section of Poladpur on the way to their destination. A rescue operation took place to recover the bodies, but it couldn't save the lives.
I am appealing to all the people to donate whatever you can to support families in the time of crisis.
There are many areas where families need support along with some financial help which will be important for them in the coming future.
Many of them have young children whose future needs to be considered and secured. By losing father figure they have already lost much and we as a society need to step up to help them at this time. All of them were the main source of income for the families and they need some financial stability for the future which looks dark at the moment.
Sudden death of main family man has brought a need of help from the society, from US.
Among them was my mother's brother. I don't have words to explain his role in my life. He was the lifeline of the entire family. His loss has shocked our family and will need time to heal the loss. This is the case with every involved family.
I URGE YOU ALL TO CONSIDER HELPING ALL THE INVOLVED FAMILIES. I will make sure the help reaches every family.
UPDATE: Dr. Balasaheb Sawant Konkan Krishi Vidyapeeth(BSKKV), Dapoli has opened separate account to help the victims of bus accident at Ambenali, Poladpur on 28 July 2018. You can also donate the amount to following relief fund directly.
