COVID-19 Emergency Food Assistance

There has been an increased need for emergency food assistance in India during the Covid 19 pandemic due to the lockdowns and loss of livelihoods. Daily wagers and their families have been severely impacted and are in great distress. India Food Banking Network is focusing on helping these vulnerable families to access adequate food and nutrition by distributing weekly Ration Kits comprising of healthy non- perishable staple foods and groceries. Together with our partners we are ensuring that they have enough food to eat, remain healthy and can dedicate themselves to rebuilding their lives.
