Supporting the unorganized sector workers through the times of the Coronavirus Pandemic

It's known to all that the best way to control the spread of Novel COVID19 is to maintain Social Distancing. Staying at home has definitely helped in controlling the pandemic but has also created major disruptions in the lives of a large number of Daily Wage and Unorganized Sector workers in India. Due to the countrywide lock down, livelihood opportunities of millions of migrant construction workers, auto and cab drivers, street vendors have come to a halt.

To address these issues and support the Migrant Workers, Sambhav Foundation (An initiative of LabourNet) has partnered with some of the leading Corporates in the country and initiated several Welfare Programs. As the first step of support, Sambhav Foundation will be distributing essential food grain such as Rice Wheat, vegetables, and basic spices, Health kits containing alcohol-based sanitizers and soaps for the workers impacted due to lock down.

With your support we will help over one lakh individuals (30000 families with an average of 4 people) across different regions in India with monthly essential which will last for a month. A pack of monthly essential includes

• Rice-10 kilo
• Wheat-5 kilo
• Dal-2 kilo

• Salt-1 kilo
• Sugar-1 Kilo
• Tea Powder-500 gm
• Detergent-1 kg
