During the COVID-19 pandemic, ELF UK partnered with the Indian Business Network (IBN) to support international students in London and Essex, UK who were facing financial hardships due to lockdown restrictions. Many of these students, who relied on part-time jobs for their living expenses and tuition fees, found themselves unable to make ends meet and were forced to queue in front of restaurants for free food. The initiative stepped in to provide essential food supplies for a month, offering critical support and sustenance to over 1,000 international students during this challenging time.
