Indian Girl Arti Singh in Coma After US Crash
A young girl named Arti Singh from India was very badly hurt in a car accident in the United States.
She has been in a deep sleep called a coma for over a month and is in the hospital.
Her dad, Sumiran Singh, came from India to be with her.
Many people, including Indian communities in the US, are helping by giving money to support her treatment.
Arti was trying to build a life in the US but was recently without a job.
The community is also asking for more information about the driver who hit her.
Everyone is hoping she gets better soon.
Arti Singh, a recently laid-off Indian girl, was hit by a car in San Jose, California, on November 9 and has been in a coma since.
She is undergoing intensive treatment at Santa Clara Valley Medical Centre, including major surgeries for her neck and stomach.
Her father, Sumiran Singh, has arrived from India and is by her side, but he is struggling with finances and access to her documents.
A fundraiser on Zeffy has raised $20,629 out of a $200,000 goal to support her medical expenses.
The Indian diaspora and community organizations like the Overseas Organization for Better Bihar (O2B2) are rallying to support Arti and her father.

Spokesperson for the Overseas Organization for Better Bihar
“Singh has no one here. No relatives. No support. When we met him, he didn’t even know where he would sleep. We cannot let a father struggle alone in a foreign land while his daughter fights for her life. We are calling upon the Indian community in the Bay Area to step up to help Arti Singh and her father in whatever way possible.”
