The Vira Project

The ViRa Project is an initiative of Sargam Dhawan Bhayana, the young Director at Tressmart, a successful ecommerce site that deals in luxury beauty, skin and hair care products. Deeply affected by the tragedy the second wave of COVID 19 has caused, Sargam and her team of young, dynamic colleagues and friends have got together to make heroes out of everyone. The ViRa Project is focusing on three elements at present, for people who have been hit by the pandemic. 1. Counselling for individuals and families who have been hit by COVID 19. Depression and mental disease have become very prevalent in today's day and age. It is not easy losing a loved one, a job or a home. Being constantly in and out of lockdowns, it’s not always possible for friends and family to monitor or visit a person suffering from depression. We, at The ViRa Project, want to be there for that person who needs that humane touch in their hour of need. 2. Job search for people who have lost jobs due to the pandemic. These jobs could be part time positions or full time positions to help people get back on their feet. Even though economists are predicting recessions, if we are able to help people with a stop gap to pay the rent and put food on the table, we will feel like it's a job well done. We want to help people from all sectors, by reaching out to our vast network of resources. 3. Pet rehabilitation for all those pooches whose families are facing challenges looking after pets post Covid-19. A lot of pets are being sold to breeders or abandoned as they have lost their primary caregivers to the pandemic. We would like to ensure these are genuine cases and they are sent to loving homes where they continue getting the care and love that they are used to. We at The ViRa Project are looking for volunteers to help us with the above criterias. You don’t need a special qualification to help! But it’s great if you have leads to help people in these situations. Volunteer Link-https://forms.gle/5DD5SzsTsorg2P667
