“Since the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, Hebei Province, as the paired assistance partner of the Shennongjia Forestry District, has provided urgent and much-needed support in areas such as medical personnel and various supplies. In particular, the Hebei Federation of Industry and Commerce has mobilized chambers of commerce, enterprises, and entrepreneurs to make generous donations of funds and materials, which has given us tremendous strength.” On March 6, the Shennongjia Forestry District Federation of Industry and Commerce sent a special letter of gratitude to the Hebei Federation of Industry and Commerce, expressing its heartfelt appreciation for the assistance provided by the Hebei FIC, its chambers of commerce, and the broader community of enterprises and entrepreneurs since the onset of the pandemic.
 
 
 
Following the State’s establishment of the pairing-assistance mechanism, the Hebei Provincial Federation of Industry and Commerce attached great importance to the matter, convened a special meeting to deliberate on the pairing-assistance work for the Shennongjia Forestry District, and actively coordinated with and engaged relevant private enterprises to participate in the assistance effort.
On the evening of February 12, Su Xuejun, Vice President of the Hebei Provincial Federation of Industry and Commerce and Chairman of Shijiazhuang Sihua Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd., learned of the need for epidemic prevention and control supplies to be dispatched in support of the Shennongjia Forestry District in Hubei Province. He immediately coordinated with the provincial federation and the Shennongjia Forestry District Federation of Industry and Commerce to ascertain the specific requirements. Upon learning that designated hospitals in the forestry district were facing shortages of emergency medications, he personally arranged for the allocation of moxifloxacin hydrochloride sodium chloride injection from the company’s stockpile as a donation to the Shennongjia Forestry District, while also coordinating the provision of 2,000 boxes of arbidol capsules to the Hebei Zhongji Poverty Alleviation Foundation for distribution to the forestry district.
Following coordinated communication, the Provincial Federation of Industry and Commerce, in collaboration with the Hebei Zhongji Poverty Alleviation Foundation, Shijiazhuang Sihua Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd., and Shijiazhuang Yiling Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd., jointly donated RMB 500,000 in cash and pharmaceuticals valued at another RMB 500,000—totaling RMB 1 million—to the Shennongjia Forestry District in Hubei Province to support local epidemic prevention and control efforts.
“As a socially responsible private enterprise, we have an obligation to contribute our part to this war without gunfire,” said Su Xuejun.
