As the nation continues to battle through the 2nd wave of Covid-19. Several organisations and individuals have come forward to help and provide assistance to those who need it. Humanity standing up for humanity is something so wholesome that it is inevitably worthy of the highest stature.
While staying at home might be the safest option for now. Many of us must have felt the urge to go out and help. While going out would come with restrictions and is not quite the safest thing to do, the latter is still possible. Yes you read it right! We can help while staying at home.
