Kohinoor Banerji's mother and brother's survival
Donation protected
This is a sad story of a bereaved mother of one of our Odia brothers in Canada, Late Kohinoor Banerji, who met with his sudden death due to bleeding in his brain two years back. Kohinoor had his wife and son here in Toronto, while his mother and younger brother were in Bhubaneswar. Kohinoor could not bring his mother to Canada because there was nobody to look after his sick younger brother back home. So Kohinoor had two families to look after; one in Toronto, and another in Bhubaneswar. After the sudden death of Kohinoor, we on behalf of the the Odia community and NIT Rourkela Alumni, had made a fundraising campaign to support the families; out of which we had to pay the major part of the funds to his wife in Toronto and a meagre amount to his dependent family in Bhubaneswar who were in fact very needy; whose present situation is very bad, their survival needs immediate attention now; who have entered a deep depression and are having suicidal thoughts due to the nature of their life situation.
Kohinoor's mother's name is Anjali Banerji and his younger brother is Kalyan who has Hemophilia B - a deficiency of the factor 9 protein in blood (all 3 Banerjee brothers suffered from this deficiency.) Kohinoor's father was working as a Senior Reader in Utkal University, Bhubaneswar, however due to the high cost of medication for his 3 sons, in addition to their higher education he was still unable to buy a house of their own; the family still lives in a rented house in Shailesh Vihar, Bhubaneshwar. After his retirement in 1997, the family went to live with his eldest son who was working in Delhi. He had not opted for Pension. With his retirement benefits, he along with his eldest son bought a house in Delhi, where both the families used to live together. Days were going fine, but God kept some other thing in their luck. In 2005, suddenly his eldest son died. Then after that his father also died out of shock within 7 days of that. After the eldest son & her husband died in 2005 within 7 days gap, his mother and his younger brother returned to Bhubaneswar, to resume living in a rented house. Since then Kohinoor used to support his mother and his younger brother. After that in January 2019 her second son Kohinoor also died of a Brain Stroke. As all the male members in his family had the hereditary blood problem, Kohinoor's father had to spend everything for their treatment all along. So, they did not have their own house. They are living in a rented house. Their condition is very dire. The family needs immediate help and support for their survival.
Any philanthropic efforts would be greatly appreciated.
