"美化華埠行動委員會（Be Chinatown）昨天在灣景區方李邦琴社區農場，向長者及低收入家庭派發500份新春禮袋。美化華埠行動委員會行政總裁勞微笑介紹，董事及社區各界踴躍捐款，購買年貨，分派給長者及社區低收入群體，讓大家在疫情困境依然感受到社區的關愛。她說，美化華埠行動委員會去年底在華埠舉辦「冬日仙境」聖誕禮物派發嘉年華，又把聖誕玩具送進灣景區。他們發現，大量新移民、長者都聚居灣景區，與華埠等社區相比，常常被忽略。美化華埠行動委員會把募捐的款項，購買了冬菇、腐竹、利是封、華埠餐館消費券等（價值約30元），共500多袋，由董事及義工運送到灣景區。預先把禮券按照不同時段，分發到灣景區、訪谷區、寶多麗區、Excesior區的長者公寓、社區組織，居民持券按時到現場領取禮物袋。勞微笑感謝方李邦琴社區農場提供禮物袋派發場地協助、感謝社區青年中心大力協助。家住附近長公寓的梁婆婆表示，以往需要乘坐T卡轉巴士，來回兩個小時去華埠領取社區派發的禮物，如今疫情嚴峻，家人都為她外出遠行而擔心，如今，很高興在家門口就能領取到新年禮物包，她向派發禮物的小姐姐連聲道謝。徐伯伯表示，沒想到在灣景區竟然有一塊這麼漂亮的社區農場，可以開荒種植，自給自足，他馬上報名輪候名單中，期待開春時就能過一把都市農夫的癮。派發禮物現場，也有多個社區組織擺設攤位，派送隨身報警器、為CYC週年募捐、避免教委選民教育等，聚集了不少人氣。美化華埠行動委員會董事李殿邦表示，聚集社區力量，合作共贏，他樂見其成，並希望能發揚光大。本報記者黃偉江三藩市報道" Here is the translation: "The Be Chinatown Action Committee distributed 500 New Year gift bags to the elderly and low-income families at the Li Bangqin Community Farm in the Bay Area yesterday. Lao Smile, Chief Executive Officer of the Beautification of Chinatown Action Committee, introduced that directors and all walks of life in the community enthusiastically donated, purchased New Year's goods, and distributed them to the elderly and low-income community groups, so that everyone could still feel the love of the community in the epidemic. She said that the Action Committee for Beautifying Chinatown held a "Winter Wonderland" Christmas gift distribution carnival in Chinatown at the end of last year, and sent Christmas toys to the Bay Scenic Area. They found that a large number of new immigrants and the elders live in the Bay Scenic Area, which is often ignored compared with communities such as Chinatown. The Beautification of Chinatown Action Committee used the money raised to purchase winter mushrooms, rotten bamboo, Lifeng, Chinatown restaurant consumption coupons, etc. (worth about 30 yuan), a total of more than 500 bags, which were transported to the Bay Scenic Area by directors and volunteers. In advance, the gift vouchers are distributed to the Bay Scenic Area, the Valley District, the Baodoli District, the apartments for the elders and community organizations in the Excesior District according to different times. Residents can pick up the gift bags on time with the coupons. Lao smiled and thanked Fang Libangqin Community Farm for providing the gift bag distribution site for assistance, and thanked the Community Youth Center for its great assistance. Grandma Liang, who lives in a long apartment nearby, said that she used to take a T-card to transfer bus and go back and forth to Chinatown for two hours to receive gifts distributed by the community. Now the epidemic is severe, and her family is worried about her going out. Now, she is very happy to receive the New Year's gift package at home. She thanked the little sister who distributed the gift. . Uncle Xu said that he didn't expect that there was such a beautiful community farm in the Bay Scenic Area, which could be planted and self-sufficient. He immediately signed up for the waiting list, looking forward to enjoying the addiction of an urban farmer at the beginning of spring. At the gift distribution site, there are also many community organizations setting up booths, distributing portable alarms, raising donations for the CYC anniversary, and avoiding the education of voters of the Education Commission, etc., which attracted a lot of popularity. Li Dianbang, director of the Beautification of Chinatown Action Committee, said that he was happy to see the success of gathering community strength and win-win cooperation, and hoped to carry it forward.
