While COVID-19 is slowly improving for us in the United States, the situation in India is worsening each day. Each family in India is impacted in some way, either from infection or the loss of a loved one. We at CHANCE are doing our best to support them, but we need your help!
We have raised $76,000 so far for our COVID-19 relief fund, with our total goal being $100,000. With the funds, we have been able to start a COVID-19 helpline and provide 20 oxygen concentrators in Delhi. We are currently in the process of acquiring an additional 20 oxygen concentrators, 10 going to Delhi and 10 going to the Jalandhar Hospital project.
Our next main focus with the funds is working on a charitable hospital to start 40 beds for COVID-19 patients in Jalandhar, Punjab. This project will help treat COVID-19 patients with US based guidelines. We will be giving them BiPAP and oxygen concentrators, and support in medical expenses. This project is expected to start on May 15th, please view the progress images below!
Lastly, we were able to ship 30 biPAP machines, 20 going to Delhi and 10 going to the Jalandhar Hospital project.

On a more positive note, for April we had our Health and Wellness Month. We had 4 sessions each Sunday including Kickboxing and Self – Defense with Neha Damle, Yoga/Pranayama/Meditation with Sudha Maradana, Bollywood Zumba with Priyanka Mudhra, and Full Strength Workout with Mukta Joshi. Thank you to everyone who tuned in via Zoom and Facebook Live, and a special thanks to all the coaches!
