Story

Despite the incredible progress with vaccines, the pandemic's impact is worsening. With a significant surge in the Covid cases across India, a sense of helplessness and the mental toll has affected many.

New cases have soared to 350,000 a day. Many hospitals have run out of oxygen supplies and beds, leaving people to die on the roads outside.

The knock-on effects for children could be horrific. Many will be left with no support, in danger of going without food and life-saving healthcare. Schools have closed, leaving children isolated and putting their mental health and wellbeing at serious risk.

Unless we act now, millions will be in danger, go hungry, miss out on life-changing education and lack life-saving healthcare.

Every child needs good food to grow up strong. Every child needs the chance to learn. Every child needs basic jabs to survive.
