His family faced an uphill battle as they tried to manage their finances while reeling under the stress caused by the ill health of a family member. Multiple hospital stays at Jaipur, Mumbai and Gurgaon took a toll on the family finances and life and the doctors finally concluded after multiple treatment attempts that a liver transplant was the only hope for Chimpooji. BITSians around the globe then decided to extend unconditional help to Chimpooji's family to afford long and expensive transplant treatment costing upwards of Rs. 30 lakhs. Even though Chimpooji could not be saved (he succumbed to a heart attack on 12th February 2016 finally after being out of coma but on ventilator and showing signs of improvement), BITSian ecosystem managed to raise close to Rs. 30 lakhs comprising of Rs. 22 lacs via an independent BitGiving campaign led by BITSian Nikhil Jain and Rs ~8 lakhs via the BITSAA International fundraising campaign. BITSAA was in constant touch withChimpooji’s family through our on-the-ground contact and were monitoring the monetary needs to support the hospital stay. ForChimpooji’s treatment expenses, roughly 50% of the BitGiving collections were made use of. In true BITSian spirit, BITSAA decided to transfer the remaining amount from BitsGiving campaign and Rs. 5 lakhs out of the funds collected via BITSAA toChimpooji's wife. It would help his family to repay debts taken from friends and relatives for the treatment before alumni pitched in and would also help his children meet their immediate education expenses. The remaining Rs. 3 lakhs left with BITSAA was decided to be put into a corpus fund to meet any suchout-of-blue emergency needsarising in future for any member of the BITSian family. As always, BITSAA reached out to all donors who have contributed via our platform providing an option to seek refund in case they wish.

The said student's father who was the only earning member of the family lost his job along with a series of unfortunate events both on personal and health levels. With a huge responsibility lying on the student's shoulders, the person was in dire need of financial support. With the help of the BITS administration and the anonymous BITSAA donor, the student was able to complete his degree and land a job via Practice School.

In the student's own words: 'I will forever be grateful for the role that the BITSAA family played in helping me get to where I am today. If it weren't for your help - having arranged the funds for me in the time of need - I wouldn't have had the shot to get to where I am today. In fact, it is only because of BITSAA's help that I got to continue with the semester.'
