Thank You Letter to Donors for Donating to the 2008 Cichuan Earthquake Fund

Date: Friday, August 1, 2008, 10:24 AM

Dear FJMU Alumni in America :

On May 12, 2008, a catastrophic 8.0 magnitude earthquake crushed the Sichuan Province of China, resulting in over 70,000 casualties and many more injured and homeless.

The news of the earthquake shocked and saddened us all. Understanding and trusting in the love we have for humanity, for China, and for the world, we hoped to make every effort to aid in relieving the suffering of the earthquake victims. Thus, in our email, we appealed to all of our alumni in asking for their donations so that collectively, we could support the rescue and recovery efforts in China.

In response to the AAFMUA appeal, 40 families among our alumni donated to our earthquake relief fund. From May 15 to May 28, their donations totaled $13,300 (please see the attachment). We are also very grateful that many of our alumni and their families including Boqing Chen, Tongchuan Li, Ling Zheng, Yishun Lin, Peihong Xu, Yiwu Huang, Ronglan Zheng, Yanyu Sun, Yu Teng, et al. who had already donated to alternative relief organizations made additional contributions to AAFMUA to show their support for our campaign and their concern for those affected by the disaster.

We also discovered that many of our alumni although not participating in our campaign had made donations towards the earthquake efforts through the American Red Cross, China Red Cross and many other charities, local churches, Chinese schools, and their work places. These responses were overwhelming and touched all of our hearts.

In regards to these inspiring displays of kindness, we wish to emphasize that regardless of the amount donated by each family, every dollar reflects both deep sympathy and great human compassion.

All of your donations have been forwarded to the Chinese Consulate General in New York and sent to the areas affected by the earthquake. We sincerely thank all of you for your generosity and enthusiasm to help others in need. United we stand with this spirit, we shall overcome and all survivors of the earthquake shall overcome!

Many thanks to you once more!
