Last month, the company announced to provide $2 million to support Coronavirus relief efforts in India, including to the US-India Friendship Alliance, an affiliate of the US-India Strategic Partnership Forum, and local nonprofits helping those most impacted by the virus.
The contributions will support the public health system by helping to improve the capacity and supply chains of small hospitals, which will enable them to provide treatment for greater numbers of affected patients. Other contributions will go toward providing food and essential items to low-income communities across India.
In order to advance racial equity, the firm has also committed $30 billion over the next five years to drive an inclusive recovery, support employees and break down barriers of systemic racism.
