The CWDF and CCTF opened the emergency rescue channel as soon as possible. The two foundations mobilized all sectors of society to provide funds and urgently needed items such as food, drinking water, and sanitary supplies for women, children and families in the disaster-stricken areas, which received a positive response and support from many caring netizens and companies.
