We invite you to join the UCC at the UN in the Interfaith Movement to End the Pandemic. Join us in saving lives!
Thirteen-year-old Ashutosh Chhetry lined up to receive his first dose of the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine at the Patan Academy of Health Sciences in Lalitpur District, central Nepal on November 14, 2021.
That month, the Nepal Government opened eligibility for vaccination to all immunocompromised people aged 12 and older. Ashutosh's history of asthma made him part of this vulnerable priority group. People with asthma are more likely to be hospitalized from COVID-19.
Ashutosh's mother, Ruby Rajak Chhetry, and brother, Rohan Chhetry, breathed a sigh of relief knowing he was eligible to be vaccinated. The family is still mourning the loss of Ashutosh and Rohan's father, who died of COVID-19 in June 2021.
The UCC is partnering with UNICEF USA in the interfaith movement to End the Pandemic. During World Immunization Week, the UCC will be matching your donations given to this campaign up to $50,000.
All money raised will go towards UNICEF getting the vaccine into the arms of people around the world. It will also support UNICEF’s efforts in the development of rapid diagnostics and treatments and helping countries strengthen their health systems.
Together we can end the pandemic and save lives.
