The very large earthquake, striking an area where it was totally unexpected, obliterated the town of Wenchuan and twisted everyone's heart.
Whilst the entire nation is in mourning for the victims, Vaillant Company is actively looking for ways to offer help. An employee donation activity was organized only two days after the disaster throughout Vaillant ( Beijing ) Company and together we collected RMB 45,340 cash from 152 employees . This amount was matched roughly on a 1:1 basis by the Company to amount to RMB 100,000 in the end. The entire cash donation was paid to Chinese Red-Cross Foundation. At the same time, we sent medicine, tents and raincoats to Chengdu branch and distributed to disaster-affected Vaillant dealers as well as other ordinary victims.
Furthermore, Vaillant Company has decided to donate additional cash of RMB 100,000 for the school reconstruction program. Currently, we are planning to launch an initiative in the heating industry to donate towards the construction of an anti-earthquake school building which will be equipped with advanced heating systems. We believe that the anti-earthquake school will bring encouragement, warmth as well as a bright future to children who lost their classroom in the quake.
We will continue to look for other more channels to be of help. We believe that pulling together with the people in the disaster-stricken areas , we will finally prevail in earthquake relief efforts and succeed in overcoming all the difficulties in the earliest opportunity!
