1. 海洋城發放 Ocean Township relief distribution

In the United States, the Tzu Chi New Jersey Chapter, carried out its 8th aid distribution, at a local school to help 227 households in Ocean Township and Bar-ne-gat Township.

2.美電話慰災民 Phone calls caring for victims

At the Tzu Chi US Headquarters in San Dimas, volunteers made phone calls to disaster victims on the east coast to show their support. During their conversations, the volunteers learned how some of the residents felt abandoned by the government, as they were ineligible to apply for subsidies. However, there were inspirational stories as well, in which survivors devoted their time to help Tzu Chi volunteers distribute hot meals.

在慈濟美國總會，美西的慈濟志工利用感恩節，用電話了解美東災民需要的援助，透過電話，了解到有些災民覺得自己被政府遺棄申請不到補助，然而，還是有些感動的故事，有的災民雖然自己受災還幫忙志工發放熱食。

3.洛杉磯義診 Recipients become givers at free clinic

Tzu Chi volunteers in Los Angeles recently held a free clinic, at the Lytle Creek Elementary School in San Ber-nar-di-no County. Serving at the clinics were bilingual local volunteers and Tzu Chings from UC Irvine and other colleges.

Next, in China, every month, Tzu Chi volunteers in Guangzhou(廣州), visit 37 needy families living in Zhongluotan(鐘落潭) Town. Most care recipients live in poor conditions and volunteers brought care and love into their lives.

廣州慈濟志工每個月定期前往位於白雲區的鐘落潭鎮進行訪視，這裡大多數的照顧戶生活貧困，志工為他們帶來愛和關懷。
