The current situation in India and across the world is of grave concern and needs immediate action. Avaada Foundation is tirelessly working to build sustainable India. But at these testing times we need to contribute greater than any other time.

COVID-19 cases are rising rapidly across India – however, the impact is a lot more in rural areas as these areas have the weaker medical infrastructure and human capital required to manage critical patients. It is, therefore, necessary to identify COVID-19 positive patients early in their disease to avoid further infection and thus reduce pressure on the already stretched medical infrastructure. It is also imperative that COVID-19 positive patients are isolated. This will prevent the spread of the disease further. 85% of patients don’t require hospitalization and can be treated at home. However, it is challenging to isolate patients in tiny village homes, which don’t have dedicated washrooms/toilets used only by a patient.

Taking cognizance of ground reality, Avaada Foundation has decided to set up hospital and isolation beds in some identified areas. Avaada Foundation is in sync with district administration, local administration, Chief Minister’s Office and supporting them with their requirement. To fulfill the wide-ranging requirements under this project, Avaada is working closely with the CII Foundation. CII members too would be contributing to this project.

Avaada Foundation, the philanthropic arm of Avaada Group of companies, is engaged in social welfare activities - with a significant focus on child education, medical facilities in rural areas, skill development, women empowerment, and so on. Avaada Foundation firmly believes in the Indian philosophy, which says, “Every human being is indebted to his parents who raise him. He is obliged to his community and culture. He is obliged to the Gods and Sages. And he is obliged to nature at large, and our goal in life is to repay this debt in a lifetime. With all good KARMA - we can repay all our debts and get Nirvana!”. In trying times like these, our purpose and values matter a lot to the people and communities we serve, and we must consider fortunate to be able to serve them selflessly.
