The novel coronavirus pneumonia outbreak continues to plight many countries around the world. Huajian Group, the Dongguan footwear industry invested in African countries, has donated epidemic prevention materials to many African countries to help them combat the epidemic. On the afternoon of 21st March, epidemic prevention materials donated by Huajian Group for Ethiopia, Kenya, Rwanda, Zambia and other countries were shipped to the Baiyun Airport and flown to Africa on 22nd March, Beijing time.

After learning that some countries in Africa have reported confirmed cases of COVID-19, Zhang Huarong (CPPCC member, Vice Chairman of the China-Africa Friendship Association, and Chairman of Huajian Group) contacted them immediately and offered help. "Whatever materials they need most, we will do everything we can to purchase and support them!" said Zhang, hoping to send the materials to Africa as quickly as possible to fight the epidemic.
