Family Sustenance Program (FSP)

Family Sustenance Program (FSP)


In response to the socio-economic upheaval caused by the COVID-19 pandemic in India in 2021, the KOA introduced the Family Sustenance Program. This initiative aims to provide crucial financial support to families grappling with the loss of breadwinners due to COVID-19 fatalities or job losses attributed to the pandemic’s impact.

Objective of the Program

To provide financial assistance to families experiencing severe financial distress due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, helping them meet their basic needs and sustain themselves during challenging times.

History

The program began in 2021 to address the financial challenges faced by families due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Since its inception, KOA has provided financial assistance to over 80 families (2021-2024), with a total expenditure of $100,000. Currently, there are about 16 applications pending verification.
