We also thank all the donors who came forward to participate in this event. Our sincere thanks to Dr. Anitha Muddana, who gave us the opportunity to serve the healthcare staff.

One of our VT-SEVA Cary active & energetic volunteers "The Nekkalapudi Family" services to the community. This pandemic brought a lot of change all around, whether it is social distancing, working from home, online classes or essential businesses staying open while others closed. Each family has somehow coped with the situation in their own way. While frontline Healthcare workers and essential workers are fighting to save lives and keeping everyone healthy, many organizations are working towards providing all the support they can to help those in need. As a small gesture of support, the Nekkalapudi family marched ahead in their own unique way. While the father, Subramanyam Nekkalapudi, started teaching yoga online in their community, the mother-daughter duo, Sravani Nuthakki and Sribhaavita Nekkalapudi, started making cloth masks to donate to those in need. Sribhaavita took charge of washing the material, ironing it, cutting it for the masks as well as the ties, pinning them and later pleating the masks while her mother stitched them. These are double layered masks with a pocket for adding a filter. So far they have donated 80 masks to various organizations and individuals. They are working on making more. Sribhaavita Nekkalapudi is an 8th grader at Carnage Magnet Middle School. She is an active VT Seva Cary volunteer and is a recipient of Presidents Gold Award for the year 2019. She knows that this effort is a drop in the ocean. But as someone said - ‘What is any ocean but a multitude of drops?’

VT Seva, Cary has come forward to show the gratitude to the Hospital Staff who are tirelessly working against the COVID-19 to save all of us. We have organized a “THANK YOU LUNCH” to the UNC REX Healthcare Doctors and Hospital Staff on Thursday, April 30th. We are glad to mention our sincere Thanks to Dr. Amitha Ravulapati, who helped us in reaching the Hospital Staff. And Thank all, who have come forwarded to participated and showed their commitment towards serving the community. We will be looking forward to serving the other Organization staff soon. Thank you
