Shiprocket announces free shipping of Covid-19 essential supplies for NGOs and non-profit organizations
NEW DELHI : India is currently facing a massive, devastating second wave of the COVID-19 pandemic, and countless NGOs and Non-Profit Organizations are leaving no stone unturned to bring essential items to those in need by providing on-ground assistance. Against this backdrop, Shiprocket, a leading tech-enabled logistics aggregation platform, has launched a free shipping service as a relief measure, where the platform will be providing free shipping of essential items for NGOs and Non-Profit Organizations that are looking for assistance.
Organizations working to deliver items such as groceries, vital medication, medical equipment, and personal protective gear will be eligible to avail Shiprocket’s free shipping services to supply the goods to hospitals or those in need. Available in all the cities across the country, the service has a 4-step registration process. NGOs and Non-Profit Organizations that wish to register will have to first fill in the request form post, download the Shiprocket app, and complete the KYC registration. Consequently, post-verification, 10,000 shipping credits will be added into the organization’s account that can be used to avail free shipping
Speaking on the new development, Mr. Saahil Goel, Co-Founder, and CEO of Shiprocket said, “Curently, India is going through a turbulent time. We must understand the gravity of the situation and do our bit to help those in need. We are delighted to announce that Shiprocket has launched free shipping services for NGOs and Non-Profit Organizations that are looking to deliver COVID-19 essentials to those in need. Apart from free shipping, we will also be offering any logistical assistance that these organizations require to ensure that the goods reach their respective destinations safely. We hope the country recovers from this crisis, soon.”
Registered organizations will be required to submit the company PAN Card and Company Incorporation Certificate/12A Certificate as part of the verification process.
