We're raising funds to support vulnerable families all over the world impacted by the coronavirus pandemic. Job losses, homelessness and acute hunger are just some of the challenges being faced by communities worldwide and as always, the poorest are hit hardest.
Since the beginning of India's lockdown, Global Care has made five separate deliveries of food to Dalit families living in the Patripul slum, in Kalyan, near Mumbai, which has been a coronavirus hotspot since the early days of the crisis, saving many from starvation.
Our Slum Supper Challenge involves a group of fundraisers living on the contents of a Patripul food parcel for five days this summer. All the money raised by people taking on this challenge will go to Global Care's Children At Risk programme, the crisis fund we are using for our coronavirus response worldwide? Can you stand with the families of Patripul and glimpse just a little of their lives?
