Dear All,

The rapid development of the epidemic in the United States, based on the importance of the health care frontend workers, we and many Chinese individuals donated many batches of masks to medical institutions. This is also reported in local news media. It embodies the responsibility and high morale of our Chinese community, as well as the spirit of benevolence in Chinese culture.
Now we have to take care of the internal needs of our Chinese community. Although most families get masks through various channels , there are still a few Chinese who still have a serious shortage of masks. Therefore, we want to hold a “Mutual Aid Activity for Masks”.  Here are the details.

1. DACA has purchased a batch of high-quality disposable medical masks for this event. Whether you are a DACA member, or a member of the Chinese schools, or Chinese residents in Dayton, if your home masks stock per capita is less than 5, we invited everyone to receive. It’s all free, you only need to write down your Chinese and English name, phone number, address, and email address in a piece of paper and place it into the carton.
2. If you want to donate physical masks, thank you very much! Please also write down your contact information and quantity. We will donate the remaining mask with hand sewn  cloth masks to a local hospital.
3. We are willing to do our best to help you. If you miss the on-site event for some reason, you can contact us immediately or wait for the next event. Please pay attention to the news on our website, or send an email to: daca.dayton@gmail.com.

Location: 600 Patterson Rd, Dayton, OH 45419 Dayton Chinese Church Parking Lot
Time: Sunday (4/12) 2pm-3:30pm
     Saturday (4/18) 2:30pm-3:30pm

At the same time, if you have any suggestions on our epidemic prevention actions, please let us know immediately.

With best wishes,

Dayton Association of Chinese Americans

各位平安,

          在美国疫情迅猛发展阶段，基于医护前线的重要性，为解燃眉之急，我们及许多华人个人向医疗机构捐赠了很多批口罩，相关事迹也被本地媒体报道。体现了我们华人群体的勇于担当和高风亮节，以及中华文化中的仁爱精神。
现在要照顾我们华人社区内部需要，虽然大部分家庭通过各种渠道拿到了口罩，但仍有少数华人还存在口罩严重短缺的情况。因此，我们要举办<实物口罩互助活动>。具体做法:

1、DACA已采购一批高质量的一次性医用口罩供应本次活动。无论你是华人协会DACA会员、还是中文学校成员、还是大Dayton地区华人居民，如果你家中口罩存货人均不足5只，请来领取。全部免费，你只需把写有你中英文姓名、电话、地址、电子邮件地址的纸片投入纸箱即可。
2、如果你有心捐赠实物口罩，非常感谢！也请你把联系方式及数量写下，以便汇总统计。多余的我们将在每周一，连同DACA口罩缝纫组制作的布口罩一起捐给本地医院。
3、我们愿意竭力帮助你。如果这次你因故错过现场领取，可以紧急联络我们，或者等下次活动。请关注我们网页的通知，或致电邮：daca.dayton@gmail.com。

地点：600 Patterson Rd，Dayton, OH 45419  德顿华人教会停车场
