After the outbreak of Coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2), the Government of India imposed stringent quarantine policies on the citizens. The operations of all schools, colleges, informal educational institutions as well as formal work places stood suspended indefinitely. When the government declared lockdown on March 24th, SHARP NGO streamlined all of its operations towards meeting India’s Covid-19 containment goals.
Using a four-fold approach for schools and community members targeting Student Innovations, Mental Health, Fundraising for Doctors & Policemen as well as building an All-India Digital Awareness Volunteer Base; the NGO was able to create knowledge platforms on sanitation and hygiene, Covid-19 awareness and tele-healthcare.
