EmergencyOxygen Concentrators for Indian hospitals

Tax deductible
Help India Breathe!
Due to the sudden surge, the cases and deaths have been increasing astronomically.  Patients that could be saved are dying due to a lack of Oxygen.

We need your support to procure Oxygen Concentrators in this medical emergency. 

Ekam has received requests from hospitals all across India for Oxygen Concentrators and other essentials like PPE. Due to lack of funds and lack of availability in India, we are obtaining from overseas vendors, for about $950 per each Concentrator. 

We need to pay the vendors ASAP to confirm the availability during this crisis, as everyone is looking for them.

We need to order them ASAP to be able to obtain the delivery of Concentrators within 1-2 weeks at the earliest. TIME IS OF ESSENCE to procure funds and place orders.

We have requests from hospitals from several states, including

- Delhi, including AIIMS, with a need of 100 Concentratos
- Pune- Aundh Civic Hospital - need of 25 Concentrators
- Mumbai
- Telangana, Gandhi Hospital
- Chattisgarh- Dedicated COVID hospital, Rajnandgaon- need of 20 Concentrators
- Tamil Nadu, Chengalpettu Medical College

and hospitals from several other states. 
We also have requests from hospitals for PPE and medical equipment (please see below for a list)

We have already lost friends, family members, and health care workers including doctors and nurses during the second wave with more virulence and mortality.
