Under the continuous effect from the Novel Coronavirus, a shortage of protective face mask in Hong Kong has become apparent. Throughout this difficult period, Wong Chak Chui Charitable Foundation has managed to source some protective face masks from various overseas retailers, with an aim to donate these to the people most in need. With Regeneration Society’s support, the first batch of masks were successfully distributed to over 800 elderly people aged 65 or above on 12th February 2020.
Wong Chak Chui Charitable Foundation is working tirelessly to source more protective medical products through different channels. We wish to donate these to more people in Hong Kong who are in need, and with this effort, we hope to lessen the burden that has been brought on by this disease. In the future, Wong Chak Chui Charitable Foundation will continue to monitor the development of the Novel Coronavirus, and give its full support in fighting this disease.
