Amid COVID-19 Lockdown, CINTAA strives For Donations For Members Under Financial Distress

Amid COVID-19 Lockdown, CINTAA strives For Donations For Members Under Financial Distress

With India is going through a 21-day lockdown, the film and TV artists have lost their livelihood. The Cine And TV Artistes' Association, an autonomous body registered under the Indian Trade Union Act, has appealed to the masses and to it’s A-lister members for help with donating rations and funds.
“Since CINTAA has a very limited corpus, we are not a cash-rich association. Our charitable sister trust, the Cine Artist Welfare Trust (CAWT) is also running out of funds,” said actor Amit Behl, Senior Joint Secretary & Chairperson Outreach Committee CINTAA, adding “We have appealed all our members and A-listers to start helping us by donating ration and some funds. We have also circulated the account number and IFSC of Cine Artist Welfare Trust giving them the benefit of 80G certificate.” 

The responses have already started pouring in. We have learnt that many of CINTAA's senior & well-established actors are also sending their appeal videos. Apart from members, A-listers and the masses, CINTAA has also approached the I & B in this regard.
