CUAAASC donates medical supplies to City of San Gabriel against Covid-19

Founded 4 years ago, CUAAASC, a local non-profit organization, currently has 63 members of Chinese Universities Alumni Associations and more than 50,000 alumni strong in Southern California.  Most of the Alumni members are professionals in their respective fields. Starting in late March, when the situation of COVID-19 was getting worse in California, CUAAASC collaborating with the Peking University Alumni Association of Southern California (PUAASC) initiated the “Angel – We Care” donation campaign for local hospitals and medical professionals. Donations have been coming from not only alumni from each member alumni association, but also from other social sectors like non-profit foundations and private funds.  Some of the donations are also given to hospitals in New York.  As of early April, about $210,000 worth of equipment has been donated to about 70 hospitals, clinics, other medical facilities and professional organizations fighting the pandemic in the front line. This activity also gives the Alliance a chance to thank those professionals serving our community.

Mr. Tony Ding served as vice president of CUAAASC in 2018.  Tony was San Gabriel Community Services Commissioner before the election. With Tony’s connection, CUAAASC is happy to donate medical equipment to San Gabriel City Tony is currently serving. Tony’s joining CUAAASC donation is his first community service work as the councilman in San Gabriel city.
