“Throughout our journey, GoCare has upheld the principle that love and care must be spread to every corner. GoCare builds bridges and helps people in need.
“In particular, we help people enduring hardships to alleviate poverty and physical illness. These are the three most practical forms of support which will be given to families, in addition to providing medical treatment and equipment.
“In this difficult period, our friends in need should not feel embarrassed but be undaunted in seeking aid. GoCare will do its best to extend a helping hand to those in need, ” she said in a statement on Friday (July 2).
