 Ajay Kumar was a wrestler, till fate one day in the form of accident paralyzed him below the neck.
Completely bed-ridden, this once-upon-a-time agile youth found himself quite helpless and
totally dependent on his elder and younger brothers for all his needs. The accident had happened in 1997 and due to lack of
funds and medical resources, his condition fast began to deteriorate with the passing of each year.
In 2003, Channo Devi Foundation decided to take up his case and help him with his treatment and medicines. Under the
Foundation's supervision various tests e.g. MRI-scan were made in New Delhi to assess the possibility of his fully or partly
recovery.
In the beginning Ajay Kumar's deteriorating situation began to show some positive changes as he was put through
good medical guidance. But due to long paralysis the infections in his body had unfortunately reached such a high level that
it could not be treated and Ajay Kumar died in December 2005.
In future Channodevi Foundation will try to provide help in time for similar needs.
Projects realised in 2001
Though Channo Devi was officially established in 2003, it began its activities long time back. Like in the year 2001, the village of Mandothi realized the need of a community house "Chaupal" to hold meetings, celebrate festivals, etc. The villagers donated money but they were still unable to meet the finances, so they approached Mr Jori Singh who donated a considerable amount (Rs 30,000 about USD 750,- at that time) and helped the completion of the project.
Below are some photographs of the building and one of the thanks-giving stones carrying the names of those who donated more than Rs
10.000,-
