護老院及長期護理院
我於早前已聯絡士嘉堡—愛靜閣區內所有的護老院及長期護理院。他們表示，截至4月14日，本區的院捨內並沒有何院友被確診出COVID-19。儘管如此，他們也需要更多的個人防護設備（PPE）。
儘管我們區內的院捨尚未爆發COVID-19疫情，我們仍需要積極戒備。我已呼籲區內組織捐贈個人防護裝備給這區的護理院，借此也希望各位能夠慷慨捐贈。不勝感激，謝謝。

Senior and Long-Term Care Homes
I have reached out to all the senior and long-term care facilities in Ward 22, Scarborough-Agincourt. They have advised me that as of April 14th, none of their residents have been diagnosed with COVID-19. However, I was advised that they are in need of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE).
Although we do not have a COVID-19 outbreak in these facilities to date, we must ensure that we remain proactive and not become reactive. I am reaching out to the community to appeal for PPE donations. Any PPE donations to our senior homes would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
City of Toronto
• A web page, Distantly.ca, has been created to help small businesses. It is a crowd-funding tool which allows Torontonians to provide donations directly to small businesses to help with rent and other expenses.
