Societies from Oxford and Cambridge have launched a joint fundraiser towards COVID-19 relief in India, which is currently beset by a chaotic coronavirus situation. The Oxford India Society, Oxford Hindu Society, and Oxford South Asian Society’s original fundraiser reached its target of £10,000 less than 72 hours after launching, much faster than the expected timeline of 10 days.
Following their success, they teamed up with the Cambridge University India Society, Cambridge South Asian Forum, and the Cambridge University Bharatiya Society to collectively launch an even bigger fundraiser which is aiming to raise £50,000 in 10 days.
