Fighting COVID, together.

  The current pandemic has evoked a humanitarian response from all of us, be it our family, immediate neighbours, or fellow countrymen. The effects that this pandemic has had on our lives has been far-fetching and deeply personal. However, this scenario has affected certain segments of the populace more than the others. Therefore, it becomes a personal responsibility to ensure not just the survival of those in dire situations but also their general well-being. It is a common belief, among many people, that it takes monies in forms of gifts and donations to make a difference; the reality is, however, far from that.
