Support Chandra Thapa's Family in Their Time of Grief

Help Us Bring Chandra Thapa Home

Dear Friends and Community Members,

It is with a heavy heart that we share the tragic news of Mr. Chandra Thapa's untimely passing. Chandra was a dedicated PhD student in Mathematics at Delaware State University, Dover and worked tirelessly as a Graduate Teaching Assistant. He also worked at Super 8 Motel to support himself and his family while pursuing his career dreams. Mr. Thapa received his MS degree from Bowling Green University, Ohio and another MS from Tribhuvan University, Nepal.

Chandra's sudden death has left his family and the Delaware Nepali community and beyond devastated. His wife Pratichhya Shahi Thapa, his daughter and family, who reside in Butwal, Nepal, are heartbroken and wish to bring his body back home for a proper farewell and cremation.

Why We Need Your Help

Chandra had no close family members in the United States. His wife has expressed a deep desire to have his body returned to Nepal, where his family can perform the last rites and pay their final respects. The process of repatriating a body is complex and expensive. We need your support for this as well as to help their family back in Nepal.

How You Can Help

We are reaching out to you, our friends, community members, and kind-hearted individuals, to help us raise the necessary funds to cover the costs associated with transporting Chandra's body to Nepal and supporting the bereaved family in Nepal.

Goal: $15,000

Every contribution, no matter how small, will bring us closer to our goal and help ease the burden on Chandra's grieving family. Your support will ensure that Chandra receives the dignity and respect he deserves in his final journey home.

Thank You

We extend our heartfelt thanks to everyone willing to support this cause. Your generosity and compassion will make a significant difference in the lives of Chandra's family during this incredibly difficult time.

Thank you for your kindness and support.

Sincerely,

Delaware Nepali Society (DNS)
