Center planned in Mumbai
The couple also used the anniversary of their wedding, May 19, to announce a new project in India, which has been badly affected by the corona virus. Together with the non-profit organization World Central Kitchen Archewell plans to build a relief center in Mumbai. It is the third of four such centers to be built in regions disproportionately affected by disasters.
The first center has already been completed in Dominica, the second is currently being built in Puerto Rico. During crises, the centers can be used as vaccination centers or kitchens – in quieter times, for example, as schools, clinics or as meeting places for families.
