About Us
We are working directly with Helping Hands Charitable Trust (HHCT), Nayati Healthcare, & the International Association for Human Values (IAHV) to support their Covid-19 related relief activities. This includes enhancing the Covid-19 infrastructure by way of providing oxygen generating plants and ventilators.
Any donations raised will go directly to the charities and hospitals.
The Crisis
The second wave of the pandemic has once again caught India unawares and unprepared, with many mutants now affecting even the youth and children.
In an already stressed out and overworked health care system, there is a serious shortage of medical resources, from overworked doctors and nurses to oxygen concentrators and cylinders, ICU beds without oxygen and ventilators due to increased hospital loads, as well as poor access to medicines, medical supplies and protective gear, to name but a few.
Meanwhile, with lockdown being imposed as an easy solution, the economic crisis from which people were yet to recover from continues unabated. However, the situation is worse than ever before and HHCT has been continuing its relief activities in this disastrous second wave since April 2021.
They need your support to raise funds to help continue their efforts.
What has been done so far?
Funds have been raised and import logistics have been organised to ship essential items, securely and safely to Mumbai.
These include:
- 100 Oxygen Concentrators
