ARTISTS FOR INDIA
We are a group of more than 70 artists around the world who are encouraging donations to Mission Oxygen. Our artists include Salman Rushdie, Viet Thanh Nguyen, Jodi Picoult, Ali Smith, Kamila Shamsie, Kiran Desai, and Fatima Bhutto. Donors will receive a signed work as thanks.
Read about our efforts on Literary Hub, Kirkus, The National, The Hindustan Times, The CS Monitor and The Times of India.
UPDATE: Artists for India is pleased to announce that we raised over $26,000/£18,000 for Mission Oxygen. This amount will pay for 31 oxygen concentrators for ICU beds. Nearly 150 people made direct donations to the group. We are grateful to every single one of them.
The situation in India is horrific and help is urgently needed.
Artists for India supports Mission Oxygen, a not-for-profit, non-political group that is doing essential work: purchasing oxygen concentrators. Mission Oxygen is in touch with more than 200 government hospitals, private hospitals, and nursing homes across the country, trying to save lives.
Donate directly to Mission Oxygen and receive a signed work from Artists For India by following these steps:
Go to Mission Oxygen and make a donation of £100 or more.
As a thank you one of us will personally mail you a signed copy of our work.
The fundraiser starts at 10 pm GMT on April 29, and ends on May 6, 2021. Only donations made during this time are eligible.
Valid while signed copies last, so please donate early.
