In an amazing piece of fundraising Chinese Communities in Northern Ireland were able to present almost £17,000 as a Thank You to the NHS. The donation which went entirely and directly to the NHS will see them receive support and much needed PPE at this time.
The range of organisations and individuals who rallied to the call from CWA to support our front line health care workers was amazing and a special thanks goes to those members of staff and volunteers who organised and made it possible. The generosity and community spirit of all who gave must be recognised and will go a long way to helping those who are risking so much to look after us all.
In order to add our support to the wonderful NHS, the Chinese Communities of Northern Ireland (including Chinese Chamber of Commerce NI, Chinese Language School NI, Oi Kwan Woman’s Group and a lot of caring people from all walks of life) were able to raise over £16,940.
This kind donation will directly support BHSCT staff and volunteers caring for COVID-19 patients and it is a BIG thank-you for their hard work during this difficult time.
We also would like to pay tribute to the doctors and nurses who work on the front line and hope they remain safe and healthy.
为了更好地支持NHS抵抗新冠肺炎疫情，近期北爱尔兰华人社区（包括北爱尔兰华商会、中文学校、爱群妇女会以及其他各界爱心人士）进行募捐，目前筹款金额超过£16,940。
这笔捐款的支票已经寄给BHSCT, 并将直接用于支持BHSCT的工作人员和志愿者照料COVID-19患者，在此困难时期，非常感谢他们的辛勤付出。
同时，我们还要向在一线工作的医生和护士表示敬意，并希望他们保持安全和健康。
