On 25th November 2025, we lost someone truly special—our beloved Lakshmi Narayanan Venugopalan. Lakshmi wasn’t just a colleague or a leader; he was a friend, a mentor, and a guiding light to so many of us. His kindness, humility, and wisdom touched every life he encountered.

His passing has left a void that words can’t fill. We all feel the weight of this loss his laughter, his advice, and his presence will be deeply missed.

This fundraiser isn’t about financial need. It’s about love. It’s about showing Lakshmi’s family how much he meant to us and how his legacy will live on in our hearts. Every contribution is a way to say, “Thank you, Lakshmi, for everything you gave us.”

Let’s come together to honor his memory and remind his family that they are surrounded by the love and respect of everyone whose life he touched.

Thank you for being part of this tribute.
