With the current COVID-19 situation, Helpful Hands is focused on mask-masking but in the future it can be extended to other items or services based on the community’s needs. Since the establishment of Helpful Hands, the program has made 300+ masks over the course of 5 deliveries to local homeless shelters. At the moment, we have some group members but are looking for more sewers to join us with the mask making effort. No matter whether you are a senior, adult or young person, you are welcome to our group. You can also help us by donating to the program’s PayPal account helpfulhandsma@gmail.com. This will help by covering the cost of sewing materials. CAAL will match up to $500. 节日将近,援助之手计划在感恩节和新年之前向当地无家可归者收留中心再交送两批口罩。如果您有感动,也可以用Paypal 账户为helpfulhandsma@gmail.com提供捐助,用以老人和青少年义工购买口罩制作的材料。CAAL会match up to $500。感兴趣参加者,请联系我们:helpfulhandsma@lincdavidgmail-com

【九月寄语】九月的初秋悄然而至,一树一树的红叶点缀着小镇的每一个角落。操场上,戴着口罩的孩子们在踢球奔跑追逐;镇中心的街道上,路边的栏杆装饰着居民参与的“Lexington Art Walk”画作,五彩纷呈,集世界多元文化精髓,拉近了人们六尺隔离生活的距离;居民参与,社区意识,通过艺术服务社区淋漓呈现。民兵雕像前,华协成员用真心和爱唱响了《相信爱》这一首表达关心社区,积极参与及支持社区的爱之歌。莱镇双月刊报“Colonial Times”九/十月刊以五版的篇幅报道了莱镇华协(CAAL)援助社区抗疫的事迹。秋日暖阳流连,带着光阴的美好,疫情下的生活依然处处充满着爱。点击阅读
