Support to repatriate Sachin & Sahil and help their families

Donation protected
Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for the incredible love and support.
We are raising the target so that any remaining funds can be sent to their elderly parents, who have lost their sons and must now live with this pain for the rest of their lives. Your kindness will help them survive this unimaginable grief and know they are not alone.

With heavy hearts, we are raising funds after the tragic loss of Sachin and Sahil, two young men who lost their lives in a devastating river accident at John Locke Place at Gleniffer, north of Bellingen (Coffs Harbour, NSW, Australia) on 25th January 2026.
They were being responsible and cautious, stepping only into shallow water. In an unforeseeable moment, a strong current surged and swept them away. What should have been an innocent moment turned into an unthinkable tragedy.
Sahil leaves behind his 7-month pregnant wife, and Sachin’s fiancée, who bravely tried to help, is now hospitalised with critical injuries. Fathers of both boys are suffering from critical medical conditions and unable to bear financial burden.
We humbly seek the support of our Australian and Indian community and well-wishers to help:
• Repatriate Sachin and Sahil’s bodies to India
• Cover funeral and repatriation expenses
• Support the grieving families during this heart-breaking time
Any contribution or share will mean a great deal. Thank you for standing together as a community.
