Continued Compassion: Samoon Foundation Extends Support to Sunita Panwar’s Family

 Date - Tuesday, 24 December 2024

On December 24, 2024, the Samoon Foundation reaffirmed its deep commitment to

supporting vulnerable families by extending critical financial assistance to the children

of the late Sunita Panwar. Following an earlier contribution toward her cancer

treatment, the Foundation provided an additional cheque of ₹21,000 to her eldestdaughter— bringing the total support to ₹42,000 — aimed at helping the family

navigate an uncertain future.

Sunita Panwar’s life was a testament to quiet resilience amid overwhelming adversity.

Having lost both her father and husband at an early age, she later faced her own

battle with cancer. Tragically, she succumbed to the illness on December 1 3, 20 24, at

Himalayan Hospital, leaving behind three young children. The Samoon Foundation

stepped in once again, recognizing the family’s dire circumstances, which include an

inability to return to their ancestral village or aff ord rent in Dehradun.

This aid is more than a financial contribution— it is a compassionate gesture aimed at

safeguarding the dignity and future of Sunita’s children. The Foundation remains

dedicated to ensuring that these children receive continued support to meet their

basic needs and access opportunities for a better life. In doing so, the Samoon

Foundation also calls on the broader community to join in this humanitarian eff ort,

emphasizing that collective compassion can be a powerful force in healing and

rebuilding lives shattered by loss.
