Dear Members,
We have emphatically encouraged timely and effective support for the
people of Wenchuan. To ensure funds are received as fast as possible
we have also encouraged you to make your contributions directly to
charitable organizations with whom you have already worked in the
past. So far cash donations made by AmCham South China members exceed
RMB 100 million. We are grateful for this level of response and
continue to encourage our members to give as much as possible.
This extraordinary, continuing support from our community and from
across China, in concert with the decisive steps already being taken
by the Chinese government, will help to bring the immediate situation
to a terminal phase and help to begin the process of rebuilding,
caring for the wounded, and mending both broken limbs and broken
lives.
So thank you. Although many of you have chosen that your efforts will
never be announced to the public, in pursuit of a blind, anonymous and
profound charity of your own, we feel it is important for the members
of AmCham South China to know of that which our community is made.
Finally, I would include a partial list of those who have made public
contributions to the RMB 100 million amount:
A.O. Smith Electrical Products
Amway
BYD Company Limited
Coca-Cola
GE
Microsoft
Nike
Nine Dragons Paper (Holdings) Ltd
P&G
R&F Property
Please inform us of how you are supporting this nation-wide disaster
relief effort, or please ask us for guidance on how you and your
company can best play a role in it. Ms. Jenny Lee is coordinating this
effort at the Chamber office, and can be reached by:
