COVID RAPID TESTS –  We have secured 449,000 Rapid COVID Tests. 300,000 of which are on the ground, the rest are in transit.

We want to thank the Oregon Health Authority, Idaho Department of Health and Welfare, Placer County Health and Human Services (CA), Nevada State Emergency Operation for their generous donation of these tests.

COVID ISOLATION & RELIEF CENTERS — We currently have 7 isolation and relief centers open with beds, food, medical supplies, PPE, rapid testing, sanitary napkins, medical screenings, and comfort for isolation for pre-critical stage patients. In addition, we are supporting 14 hospitals. And we continue to expand.

COVID SUPPORT HOTLINE (Non-Medical) (Help Desk) – Our Hotline is live and has already reached thousands. The line supports people who have lost loved ones to call to seek guidance and support on getting aid, food, financial support, etc. The guide is currently in Gujarati, Hindi, Tamil and English, and will be translated to more languages.

SUPPLIES & EQUIPMENT – We are distributing  COVID  medical kits (thermometers, sanitizer, oximeter, PPE kits, and vitamins). BiPaps, Oxygen concentrators, and ventilators are both on the ground and on the way.  We are also distributing family hygiene kits to keep those isolated at home safe. There are several area hospitals in which we are also providing these supplies. We are also distributing 500K Sanitary Napkins to hospitals, COVID care centers, and directly to women in need. 

FOOD KITS: We are supplying both Food Kits for people  waiting outside hospitals, as well as Food Rations that can feed a family for a month. We have already distributed 10,000 of these monthly ration supplies.
