<div>My name is Renell Holve, and I am creating this GoFundMe for my best friend, Anupama, and her daughter, Avantika, as they face unimaginable loss and overwhelming hardship.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>On February 13th, 2026, Anupama lost her beloved husband, Sai, after a long and courageous battle with cancer. With his passing, they not only lost a devoted husband and father, but also their primary source of income and health insurance. In a single moment, their world shifted.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Sai gave his whole heart to his students at Wenatchee Valley College. Teaching was never just a job to him — it was his calling. Even after being diagnosed with cancer three years ago, Sai continued to show up with strength, humor, and dedication. He fought with everything he had, not just for himself, but for his family. One of his greatest wishes was to see Avantika graduate high school. Though he was able to watch her grow and make her way through most of middle school, he carried the quiet heartbreak of knowing he might not be there for all the milestones he had dreamed of.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Anupama has shown incredible courage throughout Sai’s illness — balancing caregiving, parenting, and trying to prepare for an uncertain future. Now, as she and Avantika grieve, they are also facing the very real financial strain that comes with losing a spouse and father. The loss of income and health insurance has added another layer of stress during an already devastating time.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>This fund is being created to help ease the burden of living expenses in the coming months — rent, utilities, groceries, medical costs, and the everyday necessities that do not pause for grief. It is meant to give Anupama the space and time she needs to process her loss and thoughtfully navigate the next steps for herself and her daughter’s future without the immediate fear of financial instability.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>If you are able to give, please know that any amount — no matter how small — will make a meaningful difference. If you cannot donate, sharing this page and keeping Anupama and Avantika in your thoughts and prayers means more than you know.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Sai’s life was one of generosity, compassion, and quiet strength. Let us now surround his family with the same love he so freely gave to others.
</div>
