May the United Force Be with You
Tri-Valley Chinese American Community (TCAC) is a grass root organization that formed in March 18th 2020, aiming to help the frontline workers in hospitals, nursing homes, police departments, emergency services, as well as the most vulnerable seniors to fight again COVID-19 at the most critical point of time.
The core team of 11 ladies put their minds into actions for both PPEs donation and the fund raising. As of April 26th 2020, $14,736.41 had been raised for PPE purchase. Within 40 days, 43,795 pieces of PPEs, a combination of donated and purchased, had been donated to 26 hospitals, 24 nursing homes, and 29 essential businesses, out of which, about 1/3 places had confirmed COVID-19 cases.
It is a great demonstration of a little spark could become a united force of Chinese American to fight against COVID-19!
成立于2020年3月18日的美国三谷华裔社区是一家临时组成的草根组织，旨在加州新冠肺炎最危急时期，帮助医院、老人院、警察局、紧急服务部门的一线英雄们以及最弱势的老年人群抗击疫情 ！
由11名女士组成的核心团队将她们的想法立刻转化为行动，不仅在社区号召捐赠个人防护用品，同时启动了善款募捐。 截至2020年4月26日，14,736.41美金募捐善款被全部用于个人防护装备采购。在不到40天内，募捐及采购的总计43,795件个人防护用品在第一时间被送到了26家医院，24家老人院和29家重要企业手中，其中约1/3处有确诊的新冠肺炎病例。
这个爱心举动虽然仅是美国若干华人团体里的一颗小小火花，但展示了在美华人们共同对抗新冠肺炎的庞大凝聚力！
