We will collect contributions to distribute soaps and hand wash among masses

We have launched the ‘India Fights Corona’ campaign to help prevent & manage the spread of novel coronavirus in communities with the greatest need. In this, we are being supported by Lifebuoy, the hygiene brand from Unilever and YouWeCan, a foundation established by Indian cricketer Yuvraj Singh. In the fight against Coronavirus spread in India, we are appealing to fellow Indians to donate money which will be used to distribute Lifebuoy hygiene products among vulnerable sections of the society. In addition to this, we will distribute 10 lakh soaps and hand washes at no cost in the affected areas in the first phase of this campaign.

As the number of confirmed novel coronavirus cases in India continues to rise, it is advised that people should frequently and thoroughly wash hands with soap & water. With this partnership, we are educating everyone on the importance of developing a habit of personal hygiene while avoiding transmission of the virus from one to another.

This contribution can be made on the Paytm Android App and Paytm.com website under the ‘Donation’ section. The amount raised will be used to procure & distribute soaps and hand wash to people who need it the most — including people who are part of our everyday life, such as our house helps, security guards, drivers and vegetable vendors among others.
