China Sichuen Earthquake Donation Sales
May 15-23, 2008
The 8.0 earthquake
in Sichuen Province, China have claimed more than eighty thousand
lives and made million people homeless, among them many are
children. They urgently need help for food and shelters, and
most importantly aids to rebuild their homeland.
HKRCSS has organized a donation
sale a week after the disaster happened on 12 May 2008.
There were over 60 items
donated by many r/c pilots, please see the
detailed donation record. The auction hit the peak at the last moment of
auction period. Finally, we were able to generate a sum of
HK$40,840
of donation money. A
cheque in the name of Hong Kong Radio Control Soaring
Society was then issued to Hong Kong Red Cross
China Sichuen Earthquake
Relief Fund on 28 May 2008.
HKRCSS wishfully
thanks the donors and bidders for their generosity.
We believe the money can be put into
right use to save more lives and enable some of the victims to
rebuild their home.
We are proud of being one who are able to help.
We will post a formal receipt
once we have received it from Red Cross.
