Introduction
Well over a year and we are all still fighting COVID-19. In developed countries like the UK and USA the press is flooded with the number of residence vaccinated but for places such as India, Africa and poorer communities the end is far from insight. In Kerala where we work 1.5 million cases of COVID have been confirmed and numbers are climbing. India is seeing 350,000 new cases each day. Governments are failing and communities have access to no oxygen and people are dying.
Report
This term India was overwhelmed by the delta variant of covid and all schools were closed and had to move to online formats. It now costs a student $1500 per year to attend school a figure most families are unable to afford. We have stepped in to assist by paying teachers salaries so that the school are able to offer more scholarships and resources to families who are unable to afford the school fees.
