1 On March 22, three days before the whole of HOW IT went into lockdown, we started our first two missions in response to immediate needs of citizens coping with the pandemic, unfolding at rapid speed. One ALL STARTED mission was to provide poor communities with hygiene kits, the other was for cash relief todaily wagers.

And, right from the word go, we decided to give 100% of every donation made to our Covid missions for the cause, including absorbing third party payment processing charges.

In the first three days, we received over ₹1 crore in donations, two days later we were able to make our first disbursement to NGO partners who had permission from the government to distribute hygiene kits despite the lockdown.

A few days later, to provide urgent cash relief, we made the first transfer of funds to our NGO partners to pass on to informal sector workers who had lost their source of income due to the coronavirus.

This was just the beginning, the amounts very small to match the scale of need. People, from all walks of life, wanted to help. We were inundated with requests about fundraising. And we, at GiveIndia, wanted to harness this outpouring of compassion and enable the giving.

3 4 THE NEED FOR ICRF

Very quickly we realised that to do that and make a meaningful impact at a time of unprecedented turmoil and tragedy, we needed to widen the scope of our operations.

In consultation with our reliable, trusted non profit partners, and with advice from health experts and those in fund management, we set up the India COVID Response Fund on April 10, 2020.

Best described as a giving collective, ICRF has enabled both individuals and organisations to come together and respond effectively to a global health crisis with repercussions affecting almost every individual and organisation.

The collective comprises corporates, foundations, digital platforms, government bodies, philanthropists, high networth individuals and everyday givers.

With proposals from 1,500+ nonprofits nationwide, there was a great need to provide meals and rations. The urgency of this crisis was enhanced with the regular reports on migrant workers either stuck in cities with nothing to eat or travelling by foot without food or water, pregnant women without basic care, starving children, tribal and rural communities fighting hunger.

Our nonprofit partners’ focus on due diligence of beneficiaries, sourcing of rations from local farmers, vendors and shopkeepers and the costs and distribution mechanisms in their proposals, gave us a larger and deeper overview of the problem at hand.

Years from now, none of us who has lived through 2020 will ever forget the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our lives, on our families, our communities, our country and our planet. In the same way, none of us in GiveIndia will ever forget the experience of harnessing the collective generosity of a nation in crisis. When we launched our first missions in March, it was with foresight of the unfolding disaster based on feedback from the ground by our trusted NGO partners. But we could not have predicted the setting up of India COVID Response Fund and its overwhelming outcome, even if we believed in crystal gazing. We could have only imagined it. So, with folded hands, Dhanyawad. To each one of you who has participated in ICRF and enabled its success - and here I would like to include every GiveIndian - we are deeply grateful.
