  BRAC has allocated a budget of BDT 150 million for low-income families in urban slums, semi-urban and hard to reach areas whose livelihoods have been impacted due to the social distancing measures of the COVID-19 pandemic. BDT 1500 will be provided to each family as an emergency food assistance fund, starting from Thursday, 2 April, 2020.

BRAC has also launched a fundraising appeal to scale up the effort and increase the coverage. Any individual or organisation can donate.
