The Association of Chinese Americans (ACA) delivered 85 care packages to Westland Greenwood Villa and some other seniors living in the Canton and Detroit areas.
美华协会第一批85份爱心补给包已经完成发放至Westland Greenwood Villa老年公寓,Canton及底特律市周边独居长者。
As Michigan’s Shelter in Place order prolongs, ACA has started delivering packages with daily necessities to seniors and those in need of help. We are thankful to 168 Asian Mart for getting the packages into the hands of our seniors.
The first batch of packages cater to the specific needs of Chinese American seniors. They include rice, rice noodles, ham, eggs, vegetables, fruits, and PPE. We will be delivering more packages to Senior Apartments as well as to others who live alone in different areas.
Our next step is to expand our efforts to provide packages to some of our collaborating communities in order to reach even more people in need of help. We will continue to accept donations to support this effort.
We have been working diligently to help our communities get through this period safely. Due to limited resources, we apologize if we cannot take every request. ACA acknowledges and is thankful for the support of United Way, 168 Asian Mart, volunteers, and all those who have trusted and supported ACA in any capacity throughout this project. We hope these care packages can provide a little bit of help.
Once again, united in the fight against COVID-19, we shall overcome!
