During the height of the COVID-19 breakout in Italy earlier this year, The Prem Rawat Foundation (TPRF) gave a $50,000 grant to Cesvi to help people who were suffering and provide preventative measures to stem the spread. 

The efforts were focused on the elderly and handicapped, and the TPRF grant helped provide over 1 million facemasks, 550 ventilators, and critical care. Cesvi, an Italian nonprofit organization, recently made this new video to highlight the effort and express appreciation to TPRF and all of the donors who made it possible.

“I would like to thank you and TPRF on behalf of everyone at the Cesvi,” says Roberto Vignola, Deputy CEO, Cesvi. “Your trust in us and your affinity has been of great help; it gave us the strength to move forward in this difficult situation.” 

The initiative with Cesvi is just one of the many ways TPRF is helping people around the world cope with the pandemic. So far the foundation has granted over $300,000 to a variety of international partners to provide food, medical care, and other crucial supplies and services to those most in need. 

TPRF has also adjusted its signature Peace Education and Food for People programs to better serve people during the difficult times.
