Description

To help front-line doctors and nurses facing shortages of essential medical equipment in Hubei province, the epicenter of the Covid-19 outbreak in China, the Duke community has rallied to supply gloves, safety goggles and other protective gear through multiple fundraising campaigns. Hubei is home to Wuhan University, which co-founded Duke Kunshan in partnership with Duke. If you would like to support the Hubei relief efforts, you may wish to consider donating to the following organizations: Give2Asia, Direct Relief, and Project Hope.
