Relief Effort in Hong Kong is Underway!
Since our last update a few weeks ago, YOU have helped a lot to happen!
We’ve received an overwhelming number of responses from churches and individuals who have sent masks and donations! A huge thanks to all who have navigated the ever changing courier regulations and country bans on import/exports.
Your giving has empowered us to start an official Coronavirus Relief Fund right out of our church here in Hong Kong. Every week this fund is lifted up in prayer and is being managed by business professionals who are members of Faith Family Church. This team is locating and analyzing needs and distribution, ensuring maximum return on donations invested into the fund.
As of today, YOU have helped to give:
$6,279 USD in relief funds
2598 Medical Masks
488 N95 Masks
350 Children’s Masks
534 Hand sanitizers (88 packs of 6 bottles)
631 Alcohol Wipes
22 Cleaning Detergents
Supplies have been divided into “relief packages” which are being distributed to church members and members of the community who have had urgent need.
Our Coronavirus Relief Fund is currently preparing to make some larger donations of supplies and finances to other non-profit ministries we support here in Hong Kong and China. One of the projects will be distributing a care package to 1,500 students as they take the arduous DSE exams. These packages will include masks and Christian messaging to encourage them during this difficult time.
Thank you for empowering us to share the good news of Jesus and his healing power in word—and action!
Blessings from Hong Kong,
Steve and Sharmin Fischer
