You can stand in solidarity with the millions of people affected by Covid-19 in India by sharing Give India's appeal and raising awareness of the current situation. Whether by reposting on social media, or contacting brands you love and encouraging them to spread awareness, the more people who are able to help, the more money can be raised to support those in need.

3. Stay Informed

This second wave of Covid-19 in India is expected to peak in mid May. Staying informed on the issues caused by this will ensure awareness is spread and support is therefore given when needed. Instead of a one-off gift, if you are able, a standing order can provide long-term support to families as they recover financially from any job loss or food shortages suffered.
