#19 Michigan Chinese American Coalition (MCAC)

密西根后援团通报

The Michigan Chinese American Coalition (MCAC) was formed on the 23rd of January 2020 to assist in combating the deadly coronavirus outbreak in China. The MCAC is led by a group of Chinese American Michigan residents. Joining the MCAC in this cause is over 50 Asian-American associations within Michigan for the collective efforts to help medical professionals on the frontline battle with the coronavirus. Within only a few days, the MCAC raised $177,233 from the Chinese American community.

Now, as we are starting to see the same epidemic happen in Michigan, the MCAC is aiming to donate various PPEs, including masks, full body coveralls, gloves, and eye protection to the Michigan hospitals. At this point in time, we have so far donated to the following hospitals:

  1. Detroit Receiving Hospital
  2. John D.Dingell VA Medical Center, Detroit
  3. Henry Ford Hospital
  4. Beaumont Hospital Dearborn
  5. Ascension Providence Novi Hospital
  6. Ascension Providence hospital, Southfield
  7. Harper University Hospital
  8. Mercy Heath St. Mary at Grand Rapids
  9. Spectrum Health at Grand Rapids
  10. Beaumont – Neighborhood Family Medicine
  11. Sparrow Health System
  12. Ascension Providence Rochester
  13. St. Joseph Mercy Oakland Hospital
  14. Munson Medical Center,Traverse City
  15. Henry ford allegiance in Jackson
  16. IHS Health System at Ann Arbor
  17. Trinity Health – St. Mary Mercy hospital, Livonia

We are hopeful that this effort can alleviate some of the infection risk for our healthcare workers in Michigan. United we stand, and with solidarity we will win this fight together!

密西根后援团完成对16家美国医院的救助,最后一家密西根大学,明天星期一将接受我们的捐赠。 接下来还将持续专注多加本州医院。

我解释一下密西根后援团之所以高效,最主要的原因可能有两条:第一、我们团结了大部分华人团体。第二,我们成立了八九个小组。包括财务组、医疗组、宣传组、物流组、采购组、翻译组、鉴定组。 每个组基本上都是专业的人做专业的事。 因为医疗组有50多位本地的华人医生和护士,我们能掌握到医院的第一手信息。 华人医生护士也帮我们联系他们医院的物资接收部门。 最后回答一下上面的问题,我们有律师事务所全程参与我们的捐助活动,包括已经向多位本群外地朋友提供了的免责声明。

而且难能可贵的是医疗组群里面有在湖北武汉刚刚和新冠病毒作战的医生,中国医生指导美国医生[Chuckle]
