Financial support for the fight against COVID-19
The HPE Foundation has provided a grant of INR 8 million to UNICEF’s emergency appeal to boost access to oxygen and testing. Separately, the HPE Foundation’s funds for the Red Cross Disaster Responder Program are also being activated to support the Indian Red Cross in providing ambulance services, medical care, oxygen, and for the vaccination campaigns. HPE has also launched a special matching campaign for employee donations, which have already raised close to INR 24 million for UNICEF’s COVID-19 relief efforts in India.
HPE Foundation has also provided financial support to a number of technology non-profits working on the ground in India on various critical COVID-19-related efforts. These include organizations ensuring effective and equitable vaccine delivery, delivering life-saving COVID-19 related information to people through open-source tools and tele-training, and developing software that supports health workers in hardest-to-reach communities.
