We are in the midst of a crisis.
At a time when our healthcare system is struggling to cope with the increased demand of equipment, both for the doctors and patients, the Tata Trusts and the Tata group companies have pledged to commit ₹500 crore towards the country’s fight against coronavirus.
Ratan Tata made the big announcement on Twitter.
The COVID 19 crisis is one of the toughest challenges we will face as a race. The Tata Trusts and the Tata group companies have in the past risen to the needs of the nation. At this moment, the need of the hour is greater than any other time. pic.twitter.com/y6jzHxUafM

The Tatas are at the forefront of charity & humanity in all endeavours
We also remember how Taj Hotels took care of its employees who died in Mumbai terror attacks
I hope with your support, we can soon say TATA to this #Corona challenge & usher in good days
The country will never forget your contribution.
