Three Bengaluru-based nonprofits, floated by industry leaders, have launched a mission to vaccinate frontline workers from the private sector, and citizens from low-income families with the help of corporate donations.
The corporates will fund vaccination for their frontline workers, and other employees while bearing the cost of vaccination of people from marginalised communities, identified by the civic body BBMP. Some corporates have also signed up to donate vaccines directly without conducting camps for their employees. United Way Bengaluru, which catalyses corporate giving for civil society, Sattva Consulting, a social impact advisory, and ACT Grants, a nonprofit coalition by start-ups, have come together to implement this initiative.
