A letter from Chinese youth to friends in Italy

As the COVID-19 epidemic continues to spread globally, young people in China are deeply concerned for the well-being of their young friends across the world and are trying to deliver messages of love and care in various ways.

As a part of the project "We Are Always Together in Weal and Woe", a new program was recently launched by the China Soong Ching Ling Foundation, which has collected 85 letters written by students from 17 middle schools in Beijing to young people in pandemic-stricken countries such as Hungary, Japan, Pakistan and Greece. These letters are displayed in the form of sand paintings and have been made into a series of short videos titled A Letter to Friends.

The project "We Are Always Together in Weal and Woe" is hosted by the China Soong Ching Ling Foundation and China Public Diplomacy Association, and is supported by the China Soong Ching Ling Science & Culture Center for Young People. More videos will be produced by Chinese young people in the near future to send support and blessings to more countries.
