You’re washing your hands. You’re avoiding large gatherings. But, in addition to taking all the steps to follow crucial safety guidelines for yourself and your family, what are you doing to help the individuals and communities affected by the COVID-2019 pandemic?

Meet Dr. Aneel Kashi Murarka a noted industrialist and philanthropist based in Mumbai. He is the Managing Director of Mirachem Industries and founder of Social Enterprise Ample Missiion. Under the lockdown, Aneel manages his company’s affairs and operations from his home, at times working for hours at a stretch. With all this ongoing work, he religiously works towards Covid-2019 relief work.

The immediate response to the disaster is obvious, i.e providing food and shelter to the poorest who have lost livelihoods and have no safety net — and especially migrant workers whose lot is the worst, living as they are in limbo, neither at home in their States nor with proper support in the big metros.
