The global icon Priyanka Chopra is doing everything possible to help India fight against the deadly virus. As her home “India bleeds,” the power icon and humanitarian has set up a fundraiser with the Give India Foundation to contribute towards the effort of battling Coronavirus.
The inspirational actress took to Instagram and shared an emotional video message while urging the global community to donate. In a statement shared by her team, Priyanka said;
“I am sitting in London and hearing from my friends and family in India about how hospitals are at capacity, there are no rooms in ICUs, ambulances are too busy, oxygen supply is less, crematoriums having mass cremations because the volume of death is so much. India is my home, and India is bleeding.”
The philanthropist further added, “We, as a global community, need to care. And I’ll tell you why we need to care - because unless everyone is safe, no one is safe. So, please use your resources and focus your energy on helping stop this pandemic. Please donate and please use your resources as much as you can. India needs you.”
While motivating everyone to come together for India, the leading actress also informed that she and her husband Nick Jonas have already donated and will continue to do more. She also revealed that the fundraiser will directly benefit the healthcare physical infrastructure which includes Covid care centres, isolation centres, oxygen generation plants, medical equipment and vaccine support.
Last day, Priyanka took out time to interact with the users online and assured of getting aid as soon as possible. Earlier, the global star won hearts for asking the USA government to share vaccine with India urgently.

Shes doing more for India living outside the country then celebs living in India. Such a shame. But proud of PC, sonu sood, shoib ibrahim and other individuals with some levy to raise valuable funds and help on the ground.
