Bangor Chinese School's PPE Donation Project
As the world is going through this trying time brought on by the Coronavirus, protecting
the health and safety of each community member, especially those who are working on the
front line is a responsibility we all share.
According to global experience, especially in China, wearing masks is the most efficient
way to keep front-line human beings from getting the virus, and we also understand that
there are not a lot masks available locally.
Due to the increased spread of COVID-19 in our country, the team of Bangor Chinese School
are working very hard in contacting their family members, friends and organizations in China
and seeking help in the donation of Personal Protect Equipment (PPE) which we need.
