On the afternoon of May 12, 2008, a sudden powerful earthquake struck Wenchuan County in Sichuan Province and its surrounding areas, causing enormous loss of life and property. The severe disaster touched the hearts of all employees of Hubei Chengli Automobile. After an emergency discussion, Hubei Chengli Special Automobile Co., Ltd. decided to organize staff donations for relief, initially contributing several hundred thousand yuan to the quake-hit areas of Sichuan to help the victims. Further donations are still ongoing. During this major earthquake, upon learning of the disaster, company leaders immediately organized staff to actively donate to the affected areas. General Manager Cheng Aluo, who was away on business, decided to take the lead by donating 50,000 yuan first, and launched an internal staff fundraising campaign called “Caring for the Disaster Area, Giving Love.” Employees responded enthusiastically with generous donations. In addition, Hubei Chengli Automobile did its utmost, using user forums and site messages, to call on its customers to “support those in need from every side” and join in donating to and caring for their compatriots in the disaster area, while spreading disaster-prevention knowledge so that users could learn timely earthquake-shelter measures and “protect themselves and help others.” At the same time, Hubei Chengli Automobile will provide a “Special Care” program for its customers in Sichuan, offering relevant assistance.
