The travel and tourism sector has been particularly affected and it\u2019s been especially difficult for the people whose livelihoods depend on tourism. So, the TUI Care Foundation has launched a Corona relief programme to support local communities in holiday destinations during the current emergency situation.<\/p>\n<p>The first stage of the programme is the \u2018100 Helping Hands\u2019 initiative which will respond directly to the needs of communities by supporting local aid organisations in destinations. It will include assistance with hygiene training, home schooling and childcare as well as the distribution of emergency food parcels and healthcare items, such as masks, for disadvantaged families. The Foundation will give 500,000 euros to this scheme. More TUI Care Foundation initiatives in the Corona relief programme will follow in the coming weeks.<\/p>\n<p>International travel restrictions have meant that the pandemic has been particularly hard for people whose livelihoods depend on tourism. In many countries, existing state aid and support systems have been overwhelmed by the impact of the pandemic and can longer provide a cushion against social hardship.<\/p>\n<p>Business communities are also facing crisis and are unable to offer support. So, it\u2019s more important than ever to help strengthen social commitment to overcome the Corona crisis and the role of NGO\u2019s is crucial to this. On the ground, they know the needs of the local communities and how they can be supported most effectively.<\/p>\n<p>The TUI Care Foundation&#8217;s Corona Relief programme has been made possible thanks to the support of TUI holiday makers and committed TUI employees around the world.<\/p>\n<p>You can find out more about the 100 Helping Hands Intiative <a
