China News Service, March 30th. According to the United States "World Daily" report, on March 27th local time, the New Jersey Chinese American Federation and the NSW Fujian Hometown Association reported to the Monmouth Medical Center and Holy Name in New Jersey. The hospital (Holy Name Medical Center) donated 10,000 yuan each.
Lin Jiehui, chairman of the Federation, said that Chinese people across NSW have been carrying out anti-epidemic actions in their communities since the outbreak. Due to strict procurement standards for medical supplies and a slow personal procurement process, the Federation and Fujian Tongxiang Association decided to send two US $ 10,000 cheques to each of the first-line hospitals. "
The two checks went directly to the hospital account without any ceremony. Lin Jiehui said that the hospital had proposed that donors can take photos with them at the entrance of the hospital. "But now is an extraordinary period. We don't want to bring burden or unnecessary risks to the hospital."
Lin Jiehui also purchased 3,000 disposable masks in her own name, donated to local government, police, veterans, First Aid Squad, elderly center, etc., and commissioned Chen Ruping, a Chinese teaching consultant in Linden School District, Liu Wei, chairman of the Fujian Student and Scholars Association of Greater New York, extended a helping hand to foreign students in universities in Linden and NSW.
Lin Jiehui said that what moved her the most was that many members of the Fujian Association of the Township Association still took the initiative to help others even when her restaurant was closed and suffered heavy losses. Guo Hongbao, owner of the restaurant and member of the Fujian Association of NSW, said that most of the members ’restaurants have been temporarily closed.“ Although the government allows food delivery, we still have concerns, especially the health of our employees. ”
Due to the shortage of hospital medical supplies, the Bridgewater Chinese Association has donated more than 10,000 US dollars of medical supplies, assisted and participated through the Chinese Medical Association of New Jersey, and will be given to Robert Wood Johnson University Hospital and Meimen Hospital in the near future.
