Tejdeep Gardas is a graduate student from India in the MS Information Technology program at Northern Arizona University. He was planning to graduate in December 2024 but had to drop his classes when he was diagnosed with Leukemia and admitted to Banner MD Anderson Cancer Center in Gilbert, AZ in October. Tejdeep was initially hospitalized for 24 days, and he’s required to stay close to the hospital for the next 6-8 months for additional treatment. Tejdeep has family helping him through this crisis, but they’re facing unexpected expenses for housing in Gilbert, in addition to mounting medical bills.

Tejdeep has kindly requested help with these unexpected expenses as he’s unable to work or attend school for at least the next 6 months due to the intense nature of his chemotherapy treatments.
