Summary

On 22 March 2020, India on 24 March, nationwide lockdown for 21 days, affecting the entire 1.3 billion population of India. Under the current situation, as result of the lockdown, the lowest strata of the society, comprising of daily wage workers, agricultural coolies, in brick kilns, stone quarries, construction workers, contract labourers, street vendors have been the worst hit. They lost the only source of their income and have nomeans to make both ends meet or provide food for their families Important Notice about Projects in India: We expect that there will be significant delays in getting funds to this project due to new regulatory requirements that impact GlobalGiving's ability to disburse to Indian-banked organizations. GlobalGiving is working hard to address the issue, but there is a chance that we will be unable to disburse funds to this project. If we cannot disburse funds, donations to this project may be reallocated to another organization per our terms and conditions.
