Helpline for Indian Students impacted by Corona Virus Federation of Indian-American Associations of GA (FIA GA) is an umbrella organization of all major Indian-... associations of Georgia whose mission is to serve the needs of our growing community in Georgia and neighboring states. As a part of our social welfare initiatives, we are working with all Universities across Georgia and Alabama to help the students impacted by the Corona Virus. We have daily meetings with the University authorities as well as with various Student Organizations at their campuses to assess the situation and have offered our help to provide them with food, accommodation and any other help if they need. We are also in constant discussion with our partner organizations who can provide their spaces to the affected students in case we need them. As of now, Gujarati Samaj, Gokuldham and Shakti Mandir have graciously offered their places to host the students impacted by the virus. A big ‘Thank you’ to all of them. We also have many of our partner organizations and Individuals who are ready to host students in their houses as well as in their Hotels and Motels. We are also having daily briefings with the Indian Consulate officials to help the students as well as any other people who needs help with the Visa and any other travel related issues.
