Standing Together in Crisis
The APTA COVID Rescue Program was launched as an emergency initiative to provide immediate assistance to Telugu families devastated by the COVID-19 pandemic. From financial relief to medical resource coordination, APTA mobilized its nationwide network to ensure no family in our community faced the crisis alone.
Through the generous contributions of APTA members and donors, the program has provided emergency funds, facilitated oxygen and medical supplies, coordinated hospital admissions, and offered mental health support to hundreds of families across the United States and India.
