PM-CARES Fund - Donate to Help India Fight COVID-19
Your small contribution will make a big difference in fighting the pandemic!
Tackling the coronavirus epidemic requires joint efforts from every individual. Even as we maintain personal hygiene and practice social distancing, we can work together with the government to combat the spread of this disease. A small step we take can go a long way in the fight to ensure everyone’s safety and security.
The primary objective of dealing with any kind of emergency or distress situation, like the one posed by the COVID-19 pandemic and to provide relief to the affected, a public charitable trust under the name of ‘Prime Minister’s Citizen Assistance and Relief in Emergency Situations Fund (PM CARES Fund)’ has been set up. PM CARES Fund has been registered as
a Public Charitable Trust. The trust deed of PM CARES Fund has been registered under the Registration Act, 1908 at New Delhi on 27 March, 2020.

relief
NITI Aayog has set up a dedicated portal named CovAid to keep a track of all the COVID-19 aid received by the Indian government from several missions or individual organisations. A dedicated team has been constituted to expedite and facilitate the import of COVID-19 relief material into India by domestic and foreign institutions. The submission process has been streamlined through the CovAID portal. The team is there to provide end-to-end support right from initiating a request to getting the items to the intended beneficiary.
