Rakul Preet Singh
Rakul Preet Singh has announced a fundraising campaign to help the virus- hit. She is teaming up with the NGO, Give India, to aid the provision of oxygen concentrators and cylinders and their refilling, apart from other life-saving equipment. After hearing heartbreaking stories of people struggling in hometown Delhi, Singh is aiming to provide support and relief at the ground level. The actor says that even a small amount can go a long way.
Last year, during the lockdown, she had provided food kits to slum-dwellers, near her Gurugram home. The food was cooked in her housing society, which was supervised by the actor's father and delivered daily twice a day for over five months.
