Project Overview

During the Covid-19 confinement period in Mauritius, families were not able to access food and other necessities as all grocery stores were closed and thereafter many families did not have the finances to purchase food due to the loss of income from job loss.  The I61 Foundation worked together with Caritas Ile Maurice and La Trobe Co. Ltd to distribute 436 food packs to 25 villages around the island. The I61 Foundation also funded 2000 gloves for Caritas Ile Maurice staff and volunteers for safety during distribution of food packs thanks to our generous donors.
