Walmart Inc, Flipkart and Walmart Foundation will collectively spend Rs. 46 Crores to bring in-kind donation to help front-line response efforts of Covid-19 and other necessities for vulnerable communities during lockdown.
The companies will focus on providing PPE, such as N95 masks and medical gowns, for distribution by NGOs to public healthcare workers.
“Our customers and associates in India have been deeply impacted by Covid-19 and our hearts continue to be with them,” says Kathleen McLaughlin, EVP & chief sustainability officer of Walmart.
These organisations are supporting Covid-19 response with a combined effort that will contribute needed personal protective equipment (PPE) for healthcare workers and financial support for organisations providing essential relief materials to farmers and small businesses.
