Bazaar helps fund 20 ambulances

Twenty ambulances were donated to hospitals in poor counties of eastern Anhui province and southwestern Chongqing at an August event organized each summer by China's fashion group Bazaar since 2011. In total, the events have resulted in donations of 2,225 ambulances to about 800 poor counties in 29 provinces, where the frequency of emergency medical services reaches about 2 million every year. The company also holds an annual charity gala to raise funds for the program. This year, the fund will be used in improving the supply of ambulances in five regions of China.
