Keventers and Amba Dalmia Foundation Trust pledges to raise Rs. 1 Cr for providing critical care to COVID-19 patients

India’s iconic dairy brand, Keventers, in association with EduTennis, an initiative by the Amba Dalmia Foundation Trust is running a campaign to raise Rs. 1 crore to assist Delhi based hospitals and grass root organizations with their efforts in providing critical care to COVID 19 patients

Their key focus is around providing lifesaving sources of Oxygen for those in need in Delhi NCR. Their immediate goal is to provide both short term and long term solutions to the oxygen crisis in Delhi NCR by providing hospitals with oxygen concentrators and bi-paps that will help those in dire need. These are sources that will not run out and can help more people than oxygen cylinders.

As it has emerged over the past few weeks, the most immediate need is Oxygen, EduTennis, an Amba Dalmia Foundation initiative, is also raising money to purchase equipment to set up an oxygen generating facility in select hospitals. By having their own supply facility in-house, these hospitals will be able to reduce their dependence on external sources of oxygen supply. This has been done in consultation with the local authorities.

Speaking on the initiative, Agastya Dalmia Director & Founder of Keventers and Managing Trustee of Amba Dalmia Foundation, says, “These are tough times and as citizens of India each one of us have a responsibility towards battling this crisis in our individual capacities. We as a brand have the right resources and connections that we want to utilize and optimize and set up a system wherein we can provide critical oxygen supplies to the hospitals. Each small contribution will help save lives, and we are hoping to reach our goal very soon.

The campaign kick started on 26th April and has managed to raise 35 Lac so far from over 100+ donors.
