The Taiwanese community has donated 8,000 masks and 100 bottles of hand sanitizer to the 91Ô­´´ Emergency Program.

Taipei Economic and Cultural Office’s director general Andy Chen presented the donation at an event held Friday, Sept.25, at the Emergency Operations Centre located in 91Ô­´´ Township’s firehall #6.

The donated personal protection equipment (PPEs) will be distributed to organizations who help citizens in need, including Meals on Wheels, 91Ô­´´ Community Services Society, Ishtar Transition Housing Society, Inclusion 91Ô­´´, Lower Fraser Aboriginal Society, and others.

Last month, the South Korean county of Gapyeong donated 3,000 masks to 91Ô­´´ City and 5,000 to 91Ô­´´ Township. Again, those PPEs were distributed by the 91Ô­´´ Emergency Program.
