It’s no surprise the Nanjis are working to support hospitals during the COVID-19 pandemic. In response to Burnaby Hospital Foundation’s recently established COVID-19 Emergency Response Fund, incredibly the family is matching community donations – dollar for dollar – up to $100,000.

The funds are being used to address the emergency needs of the hospital during the crisis, including the growing list of urgently needed items being requested by frontline staff. Any funds left over once the pandemic subsides will continue to be invested into emergency care and equipment to ensure the hospital is even better prepared for a second wave or for the next time something like COVID-19 occurs.
