District D7430 Responds to COVID-19 Crisis in India

Dear Rotarians,

 

Rotary Zones 28 and 32 (which includes our District 7430) are partnering with Zone 33 to respond to the COVID-19 crisis in India.  We have received a special request from RI Director Valarie Wafer for donations from Rotary Clubs and Rotarians to a special fund to assist with providing oxygen concentrators.  

 

Rotarians are partnering with a disaster relief organization, SEWA International (SEWA). The goal is to raise $250,000 which SEWA will match. SEWA is an international organization recognized in the United States as a 501(c)(3) charity with a 4-star charity navigator rating. Learn more about SEWA’s campaign to defeat COVID-19 in India at https://www.sewausa.org/Covid-19-India.

 

Those partners will purchase the oxygen concentrators in Singapore and elsewhere and have them shipped to India. RI Director Kamal Sanghvi, of Kolkata (formerly Calcutta), and other Indian Rotarians there will be involved in the distribution and transportation of these products to the most critical parts of India.

If you would like to donate, please send your support checks to the Rotary District 6400 Foundation, with your email ID.
