COVID-19 Food Crisis

Covid-19 food crisis! You have heard of thousands of people rendered jobless, homeless and without food. Mostly daily wage workers with a hand to mouth existence, many are walking long distances home. Some have died on this journey. More are likely to die from exhaustion and effects of malnutrition. Many still are stuck in the cities with no means. The long term effects of starvation are yet to surface. In Delhi and in Bangalore, Leora Trust is doing its bit to stem the food shortages people are facing. We are identifying the most needy and distributing dry rations to sustain families through their trauma. Such people exist in the best of neighbourhoods and in slums but invisible to most of us .
