Covid-19 Response 2021
NGO: Various
Funds were sought to support the purchase of food packs for vulnerable families and groceries to make meals for the homeless during the current period of confinement in Mauritius. Many homeless people, and families, were without employment, desperate for food. We were grateful to collaborate with our registered NGO partners who ensured that the food packs went to exactly where they were needed.
