TO INDIA WITH LOVE

The Challenge

The International Association of Human Values (IAHV) worked relentlessly towards supplying all essential medical equipment as well as establishing COVID Care Centers across various cities throughout India. They organized volunteers on the ground to provide relief material across the country with teams across 156 nations working day and night to raise funds to source relief material, medical equipment and provide consultations with doctors on call. 

To raise awareness and resources to support their effort, they called on We & Goliath to produce an online campaign culmination in a livestream benefit concert to support their relief efforts.

Our Solution

The world cannot be set free of COVID-19 till each country, big or small, has overcome this pandemic. We live in an inter-connected world. Hence, a country of 1.3 billion people battling against COVID-19 is a global issue. The Delta variant hit India fast and hard, causing devastating oxygen shortages and daily loss of life. IAHV and their partner nonprofit Art of Living Foundation had a national volunteer network around India who had already been providing supplies through the first wave of COVID, and was ready to quickly ramp up as the second wave hit.

Objectives: 
☑ Raise funds through multi-channel outreach for a building trust with new and past donors 
☑ Bring on musicians and promotional partners
☑ Raise awareness of not just the need, which was quickly all over the news, but of an on-the-ground volunteer-driven solution from

They asked us to scale up their online awareness campaign to reach thousands of people around the world who care about the people of India, and give them a chance to help that would make an immediate impact, procuring Oxygen Concentrators in just 4-5 days due to existing supply chains.

The Results

IAHV & The Art of Living Foundation’s extensive national network of volunteers across India enabled them to provide millions of meals, ration kits, beds, PPE equipment and telemedicine support to those in need, along with delivering crucial oxygen in partnership with state and district governments. This is in addition to MUCH more that was done throughout 2020 before our part of the campaign.
