India COVID-19 Relief
The COVID-19 pandemic is causing unprecedented challenges and hardships for the 1.39 billion people in India. In an effort to help our partners, friends and family members in India, the students, staff, and faculty of the Markey Cancer Center have started a donation drive to send oxygen concentrators and accessories through the non-profit Markey Cancer Foundation and the non-profit US-India Chamber of Commerce to our partnering cancer centers in India.
A tax-deductible donation was requested to help us supply India with life-saving equipment, such as oxygen concentrators and other necessary medical supplies, so that they can get this devastating COVID-19 crisis under control.
This fundraiser has resulted in the purchase and transportation of 50 oxygen concentrators to hospitals in India. Thank you to all who contributed generously toward this relief effort.
