We at GiveIndia are deeply concerned about the plight of the underprivileged and have been listening to all our partner nonprofits working in the frontline, trying to respond to the needs of disadvantaged communities at this unprecedented time.

The Coronavirus pandemic has caused devastation across the globe. Besides the toll on human life, with countries shutting their borders and quarantines, economies have taken a huge hit. The tragedy has just begun to unfold in India and the job losses are mounting, especially among the daily wage workers. Experts say the effect on this group will be catastrophic.

We have launched these missions as an emergency response to help the disadvantaged and support families at this time of real crisis - to provide protection against the virus and a safety net for the economic toll.
