Vinay loses battle against cancer
It is with a heavy heart, I am writing this post. Vinay Chakravarthy, the hero who fought a brave battle against cancer and who spearheaded the cause of bone marrow donation amongst south asians passed away on June 25th 2008. My heartfelt condolences to Vinay’s family. May his soul rest in peace.
It is said that a great movement is always started by just one person. The awareness of bone marrow donation reached the highest amongst south asians in the US in the past year and Vinay was a spark that fired up this movement. Let us spread the awareness of bone marrow donation amongst our families, friends and colleagues. This is not an end, but a new beginning.
