Volunteers from a Zhejiang church donated clothes and transported them to Yunnan at their own expense recently.
Knowing that some Yunnan villagers were in need of clothes, members from the Chenguang Volunteer Team from Taizhou Jiaojiang Church donated their own clothes which weighed 1,110 kilograms in total and were packed in 55 bags on September 6. One volunteer named Chen Xuejuan donated 500 yuan for shipping, as she couldn’t participate in the clothing donation activity in the morning. They contributed a total of 2,350 yuan for deliverance, according to Jiaojiang Church.
"If you have spare clothes, you can donate them to ethnic minorities in need here, as their lives are not as good as those of coastal residents, though their living conditions are getting better and better," said Rev. Chen Yunhua from a church in Yulong County, Yunnan Province.
The county is inhabited by ethnic minorities, such as Lisu, Naxi, Pumi, Miao, Jingpo, Bulang, and Bai.
Several volunteers loaded the goods onto the truck which would drive from Jiaojiang Church to local logistics. Mr. Zheng Haibin, the owner of the car, refused to accept transportation fees when he knew that this batch of goods was a donation of clothes.

2021年9月16日上午，椒江晨光志愿队召集志愿者人人愿意奉献，把家里自穿的衣服捐出，不到三个小时，就挑选和整理出大小55余包（袋）共计1110公斤。志愿者还慷慨解囊奉献运费2350元，其中陈雪娟志愿者得知上午公益活动，因有事参加不了，就乐意捐出500元运费。
云南省玉龙县居住着有傈僳族、纳西族、普米族、苗族、景颇族、布朗族、白族等少数民族。当地教会陈云华牧师告诉我们：“住在山区的少数民族，目前生活条件越来越好，但是实际上还不如沿海居民优越，如台州椒江有多余的衣物，捐到玉龙来，我们可以运输到需要的村庄，发给困难需要的村民。”
清晨6点钟，几位志愿者将货物装到车上，从椒江堂运到路桥大唐物流。车主郑海斌先生知道这批货物是爱心捐献衣服，谢绝接受运输费。
