Country’s first COVID-19 vaccine delivery by Drone

IIFL Foundation partnered with central and state governments to start Maharashtra’s first COVID-19 vaccine delivery through drones to reach the inaccessible terrains in Jawhar taluka of Palghar district. This drone based vaccine delivery is one of the country’s first vaccine delivery operations with a 5 kg payload capacity and covering a range of 25 kilometres in 9 mins, - the distance that takes over 70 minutes to cover by road (Hilly region and poor road condition).

Maharashtra Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray praised the efforts of Maharashtra health administration, IIFL Foundation and BlueInfinity (Developers of the drone) in achieving this feat. The initiative received award for being the ‘Most Innovative Solution for COVID-19’ at World CSR Congress 2022

Oxygen Concentrators

As India was gripped by the second wave of the COVID-19 pandemic, pressure on its medical infrastructure had intensified. There had been acute shortage of oxygen, beds and other facilities in several parts of the country. IIFL Foundation donated 165 oxygen concentrators at Maharashtra and Rajasthan to Primary Health Care Centres (PHCs), Government hospitals, and panchayat offices at village level.
