[Explanation] On February 13th, Beijing time, 6,000 packs of sanitary napkins embarked on a journey from Lebanon to Syria.
These sanitary napkins came from Ruan Ruan, a Chinese "post-95" girl. She spontaneously initiated and contacted the activity of donating sanitary napkins to the earthquake-stricken areas in Syria, and advanced more than 10,000 yuan at her own expense.
Ruan Ruan told the reporter that she is always enthusiastic about public welfare. She once donated sanitary napkins to girls in mountainous areas of China and to the earthquake-stricken areas in Turkey through charity sales.

I just saw the Turkish official’s post on the official account, they lack supplies, and then I took a closer look at the following and there are acceptable things.
After I made a charity donation, the first thing I thought of was that they would lack sanitary napkins.
Because I did the activity in Turkey, and after I made it public, a friend came to me and told me that there are people in Syria who can purchase Ruan Ruan.
That friend is called Yugan. She was doing field research in areas near Lebanon. After the earthquake, she said that she could go to Syria to help (donate).
[Explanation] Ruan Ruan said that the biggest difficulty in the donation process lies in the source of goods and transportation, especially when she wanted to donate to Syria before, she found that it could not be shipped from China, and finally relied on a friend who also wanted to help Syria. After purchasing in Beirut, the capital of Lebanon, she asked for help Rescue teams were sent to Syria together.

We donated a total of 6,000 bags to Syria.
Because of the earthquake, they couldn't take that kind of big truck, so they were all like minivans, medium-sized trucks, and vans, so sometimes he couldn't move them.
Because the situation in Syria is indeed more serious.
They have no source of supply and no way to purchase.
I'm not worried about how much money I have to advance, or how much money I have to pay.
But if you have money, you have no place to buy it, and if you have money, you have no place to give it away.
[Explanation] Because of his enthusiasm for public welfare, Ruan Ruan registered as an individual business, and usually sells some homemade souvenirs before making donations.
But this time, in order to allow the Syrian victims to receive the supplies as soon as possible, she decided to pay in advance.
At the same time, she is also planning to donate more other materials in the future.
She said that being able to help others makes her feel extremely happy.

This time, the Syrian side basically advanced the money, almost in case.
First of all, I strongly believe that women have no borders, and we are all connected.
No matter what race, country, region or other things she is, it is good enough to be able to help.
There is a sentence I quite like. I translated it with software and pasted that kind of A4 sticker on the outside of the box. The Chinese meaning is: We are the same since we were born. I hope my sisters are safe.
