SaveFarmerFamilies

On 18th December 2015, one of our team members received a suicide note through the Baliraja Whatsapp Group. This was a suicide note written by an efficient farmer, Vishal Pawar, who dedicated his life towards farming. The entire TBI team was shaken up by this news. We refused to just sit and mourn. We decided do something about this.

Rupesh Kale used to grow Soyabean and cotton in his 3-acre land. However, the drought hit him very hard and unfortunately he too committed suicide just 6 months after the birth of his second daughter. Read on to know how you could help his family.

This is a part of our series #SaveFarmerFamilies where we feature the family of a farmer who has committed suicide. We aim to showcase their plight and raise funds to help setup sustainable businesses for these families.
