THE GRAFF FOUNDATION PLEDGES ITS SUPPORT TO THE WORLD HEALTH ORGANIZATION

the Swiss Philanthropy Foundation. The Graff Foundation donation is being made through the UN Foundation.

The majority of financial resources from the Fund are targeted at the most vulnerable and at-risk countries, which are prioritised according to greatest need on a week by week basis. As of the beginning of April 2020, the COVID-19 Solidarity Response Fund has bought and shipped PPE to 75 countries; supplied close to 1.8 million diagnostic kits to 126 countries; created and distributed technical and public health information to millions; and supported drug trials that may help save the lives of those worst affected by COVID-19.

“COVID-19 is a textbook example of a global problem that requires global cooperation,” said Elizabeth Cousens, President & CEO of the UN Foundation. “I thank Graff for their commitment to the COVID-19 Solidarity Response Fund – it could not be more clear that we need to work together across sectors to fight this pandemic.”
