In Loving Memory of Salman Khan

Salman Khan was a passionate and energetic 22 year old, whose friendliness touched the hearts of many. He was involved in his school academically, as well as recreationally through sports like basketball and soccer. He was a recent Biomedical graduate from York University who was driven to make a social difference in the world through many volunteering activities. He was a talented, diligent and empathetic individual whose beliefs were to help others in need.

Unfortunately, his passions were put to a halt on November 4th, 2021, when he suddenly passed away due to cardiac arrest. It was a devastating loss for his parents, his 2 brothers, and many of the family and friends he was an inspiration to. In remembrance of Salman, his family would like to continue his desires for change by donating 100% of the proceeds from this GoFundMe to a cause that Salman truly cared about.

The John Howard Society of Ontario is a not-for-profit organization of 19 local offices dedicated to effective, just and humane responses to crime and its causes. For more than 90 years, they’ve worked to keep humanity in justice. Today they continue to build a safer Ontario by supporting the people and communities affected by the criminal justice system. Their local offices deliver more than 80 evidence-based programs and services focused on prevention, intervention and re-integration across the province. These range from helping youth develop the life skills that will let them achieve their full potential, to helping families navigate issues of criminal justice, to providing job training for those leaving incarceration so they can contribute to their community in a meaningful way. They promote practical, equitable policies while raising awareness of the root causes of crime and calling on Ontarians to share responsibility for addressing them.

If this organization's cause resonates with you and you have the means to contribute towards Salman's passions, your donation would be greatly appreciated.
