About
The Mask of Solidarity Initiative is a platform for people around the world to show solidarity, get involved and extend support to those directly impacted by the COVID-19 Coronavirus. A simple way to inspire and drive others to do so as well.
COVID-19 has a huge toll on human life, particularly in Mainland China and on Nurses, Doctors and other first responders working selflessly to care for those in need, helping to stop the spread of the virus whilst putting themselves directly in harm’s way.
The Mask of Solidarity Initiative was conceived by Medix-Global. As a leading global provider of health management solutions, we were compelled to act knowing that through our global network of customers and partners we could make a difference for those who are at the frontline coping with COVID 19. All administrative costs of this initiative are being met privately by Medix-Global.
Goals
The Mask of Solidarity Initiative was launched with three main goals:
Mask of Solidarity Appeal:
Raise funds from corporate and individual donors to support health related charitable organisations and hospitals directly involved in the COVID-19 outbreak within and beyond Mainland China.
Mask of Solidarity
Inspiration Zone:
Provide a zone for businesses and individuals, to share their stories about how they have shown solidarity, in order to inspire others to get involved and extend support to effected areas.
Mask of Solidarity Pro-Bono
Support from Medix-Global:
Extend a number of Medix' medical services, on a pro bono basis, to those in affected areas. This includes Personal Medical Case Management for a number of patients with serious illnesses in areas currently suffering from healthcare accessibility issues.

Partners
From the outset, the Mask of Solidarity set out to engage business partners of Medix-Global to get involved and extend support to those directly impacted by COVID-19. Through doing so, we wanted to establish a network effect to reach as many people as possible, something that is crucial to turning the tide and halting COVID-19. We are deeply grateful for the support shown by the Mask of Solidarity partners.
Why Mask of Solidarity
Medical face masks have become the symbol of the COVID-19 outbreak, as fear of the infection has spread around the world. For many years medical masks had a much deeper meaning across Asia than either fending off catching an infection or reducing the chances of a sufferer passing on an infection to others. Wearing a medical mask was, and remains, a sign of caring for the greater good. A symbol of solidarity. And this is why the Mask of Solidarity Initiative was established – it provides a simple way for everyone to show solidarity to those directly affected by COVID-19.
Donate
Thank you for considering donating as part of the Mask of Solidarity appeal. We are encouraging people to donate much needed funds directly to a small number of charitable causes who are all involved in different ways, helping combat the human tragedy of COVID-19. The Mask of Solidarity appeal is supporting three causes. We invite individuals and businesses to donate to any one or all of the following Mask of Solidarity Appeal charities.
Donations of any size can be made directly to the following charities
We have chosen to support Singapore Red Cross and all the work it is doing to help the most vulnerable of people affected by the outbreak of the COVID-19 coronavirus disease, within and beyond Mainland China. Singapore Red Cross is buying medical equipment for hospitals in Hubei province, China, and is distributing hygiene items and conducting health education in Tianjin and Nanning provinces. It is also helping to educate the local Singaporean community in efforts to contain the outbreak locally.

The Love Foundation is a small and highly effective Hong-Kong based charity created to serve remote and impoverished rural communities in Mainland China. Originally founded with a mission to support China’s “Left-Behind Children”, who have suffered as a result of parental migration from rural to urban areas, its Love Fund has supported many families across rural China since its creation in 2013. With a track record of supporting the most needy in China, the Love Fund has created a “Walk with Love against Coronavirus” appeal which is being deployed to fight the COVID-19 epidemic across the country, funding epidemic prevention stations in rural towns.

In addition to encouraging donations to the registered charities selected by the Mask of Solidarity Appeal, Medix-Global will also be making direct donations to hospitals in Hubei Province, through the purchase of medical and health supplies via local medical supply companies. This process will be supported by JunHe LLP, a leading Chinese Law Firm who has already contributed to this cause. Corporate Donors wishing to join Medix in making a similar contribution are encouraged to contact us via [info@maskofsolidarity.org].
