Mah Society of Canada Donated Medical Masks to Guangdong Cities
In order to help the oversea Chinese hometowns
in mainland China to fight the recent COVID-19
pneumonia pandemic, The Mah Society of Canada
purchased 10,000 medical masks made in France
through different channels and donate them to a
number of Chinese cities in the Guangdong
Province; including Guangzhou, Taishan and
Jiangmen City.
William Ma, president of the Mah Society of
Canada mentioned that the current global demand
for medical supplies is soaring, and that 10,000
medical masks are not easy to come by. He said
that the first batch of French-made masks was
bought on the go through American contacts. The Directors of the Yee Society of Canada hope this COVID-19 epidemic will soon be contained, and send all those affected our best wishes for a speedy recovery.

shut down the facility effective March 22, 2020.
We apologize for any inconvenience this may
cause and wish you well.

YFT Vancouver Virtual Scholarship Ceremony
Traditionally, YFT Society of Vancouver will
hold the student scholarship awarding ceremony
during the Spring banquet every year. Due to
COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, the banquet was
postponed indefinitely and eventually cancelled.
So as not to withhold the scholarship fund and
certification to the well deserved scholarship
recipients, YFT Vancouver scholarship committee
organized their 1st ever "virtual" scholarship
awarding ceremony. This was done through a Skype
conference call on July 11, 2020 (Saturday) @
11:00am.
This year, a total of 17 recipients were awarded
with merit scholarships ranging from elementary
level to post-secondary level. An overwhelming
attendance was recorded as 16 students managed
to attend, together with their parents and YFT
committee members.
The ceremony went well, as we managed to cover a
brief introduction of YFT society and a short
history down the memory lane. Before getting to
the actual awarding ceremony (naming of
recipients), all students are given the chance
to self introduce to each other. After the
awarding ceremony, YFT scholarship committee
shared with the students and parents how they
can pick up their scholarship certificates and
awards. There was a lot of back and forth
communications and cheers!
Above is one of the photos taken when the
students claimed their scholarship certificates
and awards at the YFT society hall on the
following day.
Lastly, I would like to thank the YFT
scholarship committee members and other YFT
board members for their dedication and hard work
for preparing the award and certification at the
society hall. Without their help, this 1st
virtual scholarship award ceremony would not
have been possible. Great job!
