Call for Volunteers

Hi, in case you would like to volunteer time instead of making a financial donation. You could use the following resources:


'Basic Requirements:
• Local language proficiency – speaking and listening – Hindi or Marathi
• Good communication and deep listening skills
• Smart Phone / laptop / PC
• Zoom video conference on your phone or laptop – for an initial training
• Basic Microsoft Excel skills
• Minimum time commitment of 2 hours per day
• Willingness to undergo a 2 hour training

At Swasth Foundation (www.swasth.org), we are trying to support the residents of Mumbai's urban slums to adequately fight Covid-19 by circulating verified information via messages, calls and other social media tools.

Given the current atmosphere of anxiety and chaos caused by misinformation, you can further this support by #volunteering to call Swasth’s patients and have a conversation with them regarding their doubts and experiences, understanding what support they need and giving them the ease that they have a support system.

If you or people in your networks would like to contribute your time and effort towards this cause, register on this link. Our team will reach out to you with further details.'


ps: I'd like to remind you that while I get these messages from trustworthy sources, I have not personally vetted them and would recommend you do your homework while sending support. I have placed as many links as I can find for you to follow up!
