In light of the recent situation surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic, various companies are stepping forward to help the ones affected by the virus in the best way possible. Algoworks, a globally renowned software development company, is doing its share of contribution in mitigating the impact on its customers and employees, and now as well as on the Indian government.

The company has donated INR 500,000 to the PM Cares Fund, the official Indian government fund set up to help the people affected by the COVID-19 pandemic across India. Not only the company’s management, but the employees of the company have also contributed to the society by promoting the use of face masks and sanitizers in their communities and helped spread the word by virtually hosting meet-ups with their peers, educating them about the effects, symptoms, and prevention of the virus.

It is time we all support each other and help come out of this situation unharmed. It is our duty as responsible humans to support and stand strong with humanity in the fight against coronavirus. We are contributing INR 500,000 to the PM Cares Fund to help those who have been heavily impacted by the pandemic, and also to the doctors/nurses/essential workers who are working 24*7 to keep us safe.”
