ACAN Receiving Grants From AllTogetherATX Fund

Byadmin

[April 22, 2020] ACAN is proud to announce being selected as one of the 1st round organizations receiving grants from AllTogetherATX fund, a Covid19 relief fund jointly sponsored by United Way for Greater Austin and Austin Community Foundation, and funded by generous donations from individuals, organizations and corporations, such as National Instruments.

This grant is both a recognition of ACAN’s Covid-19 relief work thus far, and a substantial financial support for ACAN’s continued relief work for underpriviledged and at-risk groups severely impacted by this health and economic crisis.

Thank you very much to AllTogetherATX, United Way for Greater Austin and Austin Community Foundation for the generous support, and thank you so much to the army of ACAN’s volunteers who put so much heart and hard work into helping our communities get through this most difficult time. Together, we shall overcome.

 

奥斯汀华盟非常荣幸地宣布，日内将获得AllTogetherATX 基金第一轮的两万美元赠款。该AllTogetherATX 基金是由United Way for Greater Austin 和 Austin Community Foundation 联合赞助，并由许多个人，机构和公司慷慨捐助的 Covid19救济基金。奥斯汀地区的企业 National Instruments 作为最大的赞助方，第一笔就捐助了一百万美元。

这笔赠款既是对华盟最近组织的大量Covid-19救灾工作的极大认可，也是对华盟继续为救助遭受这一公共卫生及经济危机严重影响的贫困和高风险人群的救灾工作提供持续、有力的财政支持。

在此，华盟对AllTogetherATX基金，United Way for Greater Austin和Austin Community Foundation 的慷慨支持表示诚挚的感谢，也对华盟的广大志愿者队伍表示由衷的感谢，他们付出了无数的心血和辛勤努力来帮助我们的社区度过这个最困难的时刻！我们万众一心，必可力克时艰！

    [Noah Liu] Austin Chinese-American Network partnered with Texas Outdoor Family, a program under Texas Parks and Wildlife Department to host a private camping workshop for members on 9/7-8 at Inks Lake State Park. Our 18 participating families learned important camping and outdoor skills such as setting up a campsite, building a fire, and cooking outdoors. Participants also had the chance to go kayaking, hiking, fishing, stargazing and geocaching within the park. Our families all enjoyed the event greatly, especially the children! We hope that we can organize a similar event sometime in the future.

  • 武汉肺炎告急，奥斯汀人在行动

    [明清撰稿]元月下旬，2019 n-CoV病疫在武汉告急，沉浸在迎接中国新年喜悦中的奥斯汀地区华人都坐不住了。当即，武汉病情发展的消息占据了当地华人社团的大小网络，很多人着手联系向灾区捐款捐物事宜。 位于奥斯汀西北区的Canyon Creek 小区是华裔居民较为密集的社区。连日来，同胞们分别行动寻找到不少由美国将捐赠物资邮往国内的可能途径。目前，该小区在二位热心公益事业的华人志愿者主持下，集中统一了小区华人的这次行动。为了有效的支援重症灾区，他们正组织小区内华人集资购买更多的防护物资，并计划通过美国其他华人机构的巳开通渠道向国内运送援助物资。希望Canyon Creek的首批捐赠品会随下批美国通关货物尽快发往灾区。
