As preparation begins for COVID-19 response in Nakivale our staff identified an issue. With the number one way to prevent the spread of the virus being social distancing, we needed a place for quarantine. A space that we can immediately transfer cases to the quarantine space which will reduce on the risk of spread and should any positive cases arise.

Today our Changemakers 365 COVID-19 response brings us to Nyabiheke refugee camp in Rwanda. Our Alight team is hard at work on the frontline focused on preventing the spread of the virus.

Yesterday, we were at the Apopa youth center providing sanitation supplies. Due to a mobility restriction, communities have had a difficult time getting to proper sanitation supplies such as hand sanitizer, bleach, liquid soap, and gloves.

In El Salvador, there is mobility restriction to reduce the spread of COVID-19. This has made it difficult to get the proper supplies for keeping things sanitary.
