BTS is loved all over the world. India is no exception to that. Soon enough, BTS’ Jimin will celebrate his birthday and turn 26 (in terms of International age, he is 27 in Korea). Just as fans celebrate his birthday, a fundraiser was started. Indian BTS fan group, Bangtan India, raised over ₹1.5 lakh funds to donate towards a good cause. The group recently hosted a fundraiser, titled Project Mi Casa, in honour of Jimin, RM and Jungkook’s birthdays.
Jungkook celebrated his birthday on September 1 whereas RM turned a year older on September 12. Jimin’s birthday is on October 13. The funds that were raised will be donated to Habitat for Humanity India, a non-profit organisation that provides the needy and poor with the necessary facilities like housing and sanitation.
When the fundraiser was launched, the group was hoping to raise ₹80,000. However, they raised twice the expected amount. “Every time we host a donation project, we are overwhelmed by the response people show. While we can never expect the kind of love that is shown for every consecutive project, we are really confident about ARMYs and we know that people always come forward to help noble causes. We closed the project on 10th October, and ₹1.65 lakh has been raised for the cause,” the team of Bangtan India said.
