In memory of Paawan Purba
Donations cannot currently be made to this page
Meningitis is deadly; killing and seriously disabling in hours. Small children and young adults are high risk, but all ages can be affected. Globally 1,000 people die daily. We fundraise to invest in research, campaign for vaccines, provide symptom information and support those already affected.

Story

Paawan Purba, one of the brightest, happiest and most beautiful social butterflies ever created, Paawan was, is and will always be my little sister and touched everyones lives especially our family's with her blossoming smile, along with her warm and loving embrace. There was never a moment she didn't want to celebrate something or get together with friends and family...

I, having the honour of being the eldest grandchild of 13, want to commemorate Paawans living and lasting legacy of living life and loving life by shaving my head on 9th September 2017, a year on from when our hearts were broken by her loss to meningitis. She would've been the first one to say she will hold my hand while I take this scary step, knowing how much I love my long hair and knowing that will give me the strength to do it...

We will thereafter annually celebrate Paawan with an event of some crazy paawan kind, to remember her by and continue raising awareness for meningitis in the future as she would've wanted and truly keep her spirit alive! ...

I hope you'll all kindly help me raise awareness into meningitis by donating whatever you can to the meningitis research foundation at https://www.justgiving.com/paawanpurba

Our family will suffer in pain and have to live with one of our greatest losses forever 'Paawan'!

Hopefully with everyones help, no other family will have to suffer the pain of losing a loved one to Meningitis like we have and will always feel :'( ...
