"Fight COVID-19" campaign
Our efforts in the "Fight COVID-19" campaign focused on securing adequate personal protective equipment (PPE) to protect our frontline colleagues at Michigan Medicine and healthcare workers at local hospitals so that they could perform their heroic work more safely.
UM-ACP deeply appreciates the great efforts of our ACP members, collaborators, and U-M alumni worldwide. The huge support from our postdocs, students, and parents from China, the local Chinese community, U-M staff, and all those who have donated and participated will be remembered forever. We are proud of everyone involved in this drive. Any achievement in this campaign was impossible without you! Thank you!!
