RE: To raise funds for helping purchase PPE for Health Science North (HSN)
March 29th, 2020
To all Chinese Sudburians,
Currently in Canada, the COVID-19 situation is increasing in severity daily. Local communities are at great risk. The governments have taken measures to protect our citizens. As Chinese people living in Canada, we should also take steps to participate in flattening the curve.
During the battle against COVID-19, countless doctors, nurses, and other healthcare workers are defending our lives on the frontline. Currently, medical supplies at HSN are limited, and they are in urgent need of support. Protecting them is protecting us and our community. As such, we call on all Chinese people and various Chinese organizations in Sudbury to lend a helping hand in donating funds to support these frontline workers. We thank everyone for your generosity, encouragement and solidarity during this difficult time.
Objective and purpose: The recipient is the Sudbury Hospital Foundation. All funds raised during this event will be donated to the foundation for the purpose of purchasing medical supplies in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.
