Given by 573 generous donors in 14 days

We are raising funds to fly terminally ill Husain Ansari back to India or to support his family and repatriate him if needed.

Rosedale, Invercargill

My dear friend Husain Ansari, aged 44, is facing the toughest battle of his life. Diagnosed with terminal cancer, doctors have given him only days or weeks to live. Husain has been in New Zealand for less than two years, and with no family support here, his last wish is to return to his homeland, India, to be with his family during his final moments. He has a loving wife and a 10-year-old son who want to be by his side. We need your help to make this possible through an air ambulance service, which costs between $76,000 and $80,000. If Husain passes away before he can leave for India, the funds will go toward his repatriation and to support his grieving family. Please help us provide him and his family with comfort and dignity during this heartbreaking time.

I am Husain's close friend, and I want to help fulfill his last wish of returning home or supporting his family and repatriating him if needed.

Use of funds

The funds will be paid to his wife, Deepa Ansari, to be used for air ambulance services to fly Husain and his family home, or for his repatriation and family support if he passes away before departure.
