Dear Readers,
For many, the past ten months felt as if the world was unravelling; dealing with sickness, social distancing, working from home and even homeschooling children. Thankfully though, fear didn’t stop people from being generous and inspiring us by giving to their communities. Amid the pandemic, several celebrities also used their platforms to spread awareness, whether by sharing videos of themselves washing their hands or advising fans to stay home and practice social distancing.
One such actor is our Cover star, Sonu Sood. Being a migrant himself, Sood empathized with the migrants and started many heart-warming initiatives. Do read our Cover Story where the “Messiah of Migrants” talks to us about his philanthropic work, his upcoming project and more.
While the government has struggled to get enough supplies for health care workers and care packages to underprivileged and migrant workers, celebrities, organisations (big and small) and companies have brought resources to the people in need, donated proceeds and supplies, or helped prioritise vulnerable customers. Check our Feature Story to read about the several nonprofit organisations, celebrities and regular people alike, who did so much good work in the midst of the coronavirus outbreak.
