Actor Huma Qureshi has lent her support to Hollywood stars Jennifer Garner and Amy Adams' charitable initiative, 'Save With Stories', which aims to help children with no access to food as the world fights coronavirus pandemic. The campaign is a fundraiser for Save the Children and No Kid Hungry and features celebrities from across the globe reading children's books on social media. The "Leila" actor uploaded a video on Instagram where she read the story "Mulla Naseeruddin feeds his Coat".

"We all know the importance of health, hygiene and safety especially in today's circumstances. But, we can all #SlowtheCurve by thinking beyond our immediate circle and for the care of others especially children who live on the fringes of society without shelter and are at risk," Huma said in a statement. "You can help them now by supporting Save the Children who will continue to reach children at risk of disease and infection through their programmes," she added. Celebrities including Chris Pratt, Reese Witherspoon, Kelly Clarkson, Chris Evans, Eva Longoria, among others have also supported the initiative by reading children's stories on Instagram.

"I nominate anyone to pick up and read their favourite story for children. It's simple, grab a tale for kids that inspired you when you were young, put out a book reading video on a post or a story and #SlowTheCurve by donating at Save the Children. Please donate, do your bit," Huma said..
