Anisha raising funds to help Covid crisis in India
Tax deductible
Last week I lost my both Grandparents to COVID-19 in India. Losing a loved one due to lack of resources at the hospitals has truly been an unbearable and painful experience for my parents and I. Many families in India are going through the same experience and are in desperate need of supplies.
I wanted to make a difference by raising funds in the honor of my grandparents and to help other families in similar circumstances, who are grieving and praying for their loved ones to make a recovery, can receive the supplies they need.
I’m a high school student and volunteer of Empower and Excel, trying to bring awareness to the Covid-19 situation in India and how we all can pitch in to help. Would you like to join me in making a difference too? No contribution is too small, and every donation helps!
Here are some of the efforts Empower and Excel has already initiated.
1.Working with the government of A.P to open a 100-bed capacity Triage and isolation in Vijayawada, Andhra Pradesh and expand to other areas as we procure staff and beds in other cities.Our responsibility is procuring beds and govt is going to take care of treatment and staff.
Cost of each bed is 5,000 INR.
2. Providing self-quarantine medical kits to poor people. - Each kit is 2,800 INR (prices may vary with demand. this is the approx cost)
3. Procure oxygen concentrators and support in isolation centers. Each 5L concentrator is 50,000 INR if we go with bulk order (prices may vary with demand.) We already procured 2 concentrators last week and planning to procure more as funds pour in.
4. Providing basic ration for daily wage covid impacted families - Each kit is 2,000 INR
Thanks in advance for your contribution to this cause that means so much to me.I will be sharing progress and pictures regularly with updates of the efforts.
