COVID RELIEF
The second surge of Covid-19 overwhelmed the healthcare system in India. Major cities struggled to deal with the crisis. Small cities and towns were much worse owing to an even greater scarcity of resources and facilities. Pahel witnessed the devastation and misery brought on to the tribal population in the region. We mobilized efforts to serve patients, their families as well as healthcare workers throughout the pandemic.

Covid-19 affected individuals and their families were given medicine kits based on doctors' prescription. We provided medical devices and medicine kits to frontline workers and families.
Dry ration Kits
Comprehensive ration kits with dal, rice, oil, spices and salt were given to the needy families in urban as well as remote tribal villages.
