In 2021, the Covid pandemic gripped the entire world, throwing health institutes in complete disarray. It was the first time in nearly 100 years that the world was dealing with the pandemic at such a tremendous scale. Our Aim Foundation stepped forward to contain the spread of the disease by distributing face masks and providing vaccination while also providing employment opportunities to those adversely affected by the economic downturn.
In response to the coronavirus global pandemic, Our Aim Foundation served on two fronts.
In the U.S., Our Aim recruited over 100 volunteers to create 25,000 masks for medical professionals on the front lines of the pandemic. Our volunteers come from all cultures, different countries, faiths, and backgrounds. These people are heroes!
When one of our volunteers, Zarina, an elderly woman, was asked why she was working so hard, she responded: “It’s my time to give back to my country, I want to help our medical staff.” Another one of our volunteers, Leslie, participated in our program while she was in her third trimester of pregnancy. These passionate volunteers worked non-stop to fulfill the shortage of masks in the hospitals for doctors, nurses, office workers, outpatient lab departments, outpatient imaging departments, outpatient surgery departments, home care nurses, walk-in sick patients, and everyone involved in the medical profession.
It is truly inspiring and faith-restoring to see how hard our volunteers worked to help these heroes. Our Aim Foundation proudly calls them Our Angels!
