The COVID-19 health crisis continues to intensify everywhere, but in India, the situation is especially dire. It remains to be seen whether the nationwide lockdown will flatten the curve of infection growth, but already it is clear the economy has been flattened. The economic crisis has forced scores of migrant workers to return home with no source of income.
Every dollar helps. Join hands with Grameen Foundation and support the most vulnerable in #bihar and #maharashtra fight this pandemic.
$41 covers the basic needs of one family for a month

More COVID-19 beneficiaries and their stories
Dionicon Bengan
Surviving, with help
Dionicon and her husband lost their jobs when COVID-19 hit. So their six children would not starve, they worked as field laborers. When the lock down ended that work, they didn't even have rice to eat. They put their money to work growing and selling vegetables and are now able to get by.
Kristine Boniba
Getting by, with help
A 33 year-old mother of three, Kristine's business was crippled by COVID-19. Through Grameen's COVID-19 Emergency Relief, cash support for rice and basic necessities during the worst time of the shutdown has kept her family afloat. Short on capital but big on dreams, Kristine dreams of one day putting a grocery next to their church.
