In Honor Of Arvind Kumar Peechara

To Arvind, volunteering was about the change the volunteer feels within as much as it was about the change he or she enables.


It is with great sadness that we inform you of the untimely demise of Arvind Kumar Peechara. Arvind was vacationing in India where he met with an unfortunate accident that took his life on July 1st, 2019.  He is survived by his wife Haritha and daughters, Sahana and Sahiti.

Arvind was a tireless advocate for child rights. His passion, sincerity and eagerness to make a difference was instrumental in strengthening Vibha in Dallas and continues to inspire many. He served as Action Center Coordinator of Vibha Dallas from 2010-2012 and continued to volunteer for enabling children with the power of education.

To keep his spirit of volunteering and giving alive, Arvind's family and friends decided to establish a library in Thornala, his native village. Arvind’s family is immediately contributing the land ($50,000 USD) for constructing the library. Through this collaboration campaign with Vibha, our aim is to raise $22,000 USD to sponsor buying books, computers, furniture (tables, chairs, book racks etc.) and maintain the library for next 1 year. 10% of the amount raised will be used to support a local beneficiary chosen by the Dallas Action Center. We cannot do this without your support!

This library will be used by children and youth of Thornala and neighboring villages of Siddipet district, Telangana, India

Short Term Goal (Next 6 months through 1 year) is to establish a library and a reading room furnished with books and computers administered by a care taker. Our aim with this initiative is to facilitate children and youth residents of Thornala and nearby villages have access to knowledge and information to aspire greater heights in academics.

Long Term Goal is to construct a permanent building in Arvind’s Family owned land of about 1000 Square yards which is adjacent to Thornala high school and accessible from Agri polytechnic college to accommodate a reading room, computer or digital library room, seminar hall and a facility for qualified guests to share knowledge and empower local students and youth.

We hope you can join us in our efforts to honor Arvind's legacy and committment by donating to this fundraiser and more importantly, please share!

Thank You Very Much,

On behalf of Arvind's family
