Some families fared well during the pandemic, but not all were so lucky. The unlucky ones have seen their jobs impacted and incomes decrease sharply.<\/p><p>Yan, a resident of New Taipei City, northern Taiwan, quit her job in December 2019 because long-term stress from work had caused her health to suffer. Her son had just been discharged from his compulsory military service at that time, and he had started working at a company whose business was to organize all sorts of events. It seemed like a good time for her to quit her job.<\/p><p>But when the coronavirus started spreading beyond China earlier this year, the social distancing measures enforced by the Taiwanese government caused the company\u2019s business to drop sharply. Yan\u2019s son received only half his pay in late February and none in March. With no other choice, Yan began working as a hospital porter in May to help with her family\u2019s finances. The job brought in some extra money, but the pay was minimal and still not enough to cover her family\u2019s rent, utility bills, and other living expenses. She borrowed 15,000 Taiwanese dollars (US$510) from a relative to tide her over, but she knew that the loan and what little savings she had left wouldn\u2019t last long. The anxiety about her finances just kept growing. It was then that she received a phone call from Tzu Chi volunteer Lin Chun-jin (\u6797\u6625\u91d1). Yan used to be a Tzu Chi care recipient. The phone call led Tzu Chi to add Yan to the foundation\u2019s aid list again.<\/p><p>Lin recalled that phone call with Yan: \u201cWhen I called Yan, she said to me, \u2018This phone call feels like I\u2019ve been given a piece of wood to cling to as I struggle to stay afloat on a boundless sea.\u2019 Her statement made me so happy I had called, since I had the opportunity to help a family that was badly in need of help.\u201d<\/p><p>To cushion the economic impact of the COVID-19 outbreak, the Taiwanese government implemented several relief measures to bail out companies, families, and individuals. For example, disadvantaged children, low-income families, and the physically and mentally challenged were given 1,500 Taiwanese dollars (US$50) a month from April to June to subsidize their living expenses. These measures helped many people, but not all. Some needy families failed to meet the criteria for government aid for one reason or another, but they needed help just as much. What were they to do?<\/p><p>To help folks who had slipped through the social security net, Tzu Chi volunteers and employees, in response to Dharma Master Cheng Yen\u2019s instructions, launched a care program in mid-April for families whose finances had been negatively affected by the pandemic. Volunteers and social workers called the families currently receiving Tzu Chi aid to find out if they needed any assistance during this critical time. They also called families that the foundation had ceased providing aid to in the previous couple of years because their financial situations had improved. There were more than 50,000 such households to contact.<\/p><p>The households were organized and divided into groups by where they lived. As soon as volunteer Lin Chun-jin received her care list, she invited volunteers Xu Shu-yun (\u8a31\u6dd1\u96f2) and Li Yu-hua (\u674e\u7389\u83ef) to her home to help phone the more than 50 families on her roster.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-697c32ce elementor-section-full_width elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"697c32ce\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-no\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-23a2268e\" data-id=\"23a2268e\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-70a579d elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"70a579d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h5><strong>Phone calls of caring<\/strong><\/h5>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4e8acb57 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"4e8acb57\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>\u201cThanks to Master Cheng Yen and Tzu Chi for remembering me!\u201d said Tr\u1ea7n, a single mother originally from Vietnam. She divorced her husband because he did drugs and was abusive, and now lives alone with their daughter. She was the first person volunteer Lin called. Lin had cared for her before.<\/p>\n<p>Tr\u1ea7n told Lin on the phone that due to the impact of the coronavirus, she had had to close her food stall in the market. Fortunately, she had gotten a job at a greengrocer\u2019s shop, so she had been able to get by. Lin worried that she might not be telling the whole truth because she was too shy to ask for help, so she decided to check on her at the shop where she worked. She paid a visit to the shop a few days later, and was relieved to see that Tr\u1ea7n seemed to be doing well at her job. \u201cShe gave me a tight hug when she saw me,\u201d Lin recalled of the meeting. \u201cShe made me feel that Tzu Chi was an important support to her in her heart.\u201d Of all the people Lin had called, Tr\u1ea7n was among those who had done better, having come through a difficult time without a deep impact.<\/p>\n<p>Lin and the two volunteers who assisted her weren\u2019t familiar with the situations of all the families on their list, so the first step in reaching out was to check and review the records of a family. Only when they had some understanding of a family\u2019s background and had discussed among themselves how to go about extending care to the family did they make the phone calls. \u201cFor example, if we learned that some family had once been plunged into financial distress because the breadwinner had problems keeping a job,\u201d Lin explained, \u201cwe\u2019d inquire whether their job situation had improved.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Lin knew how much Master Cheng Yen was concerned about how the needy were doing during the pandemic, so she cheerfully tackled the task of calling the households. When she couldn\u2019t reach a family during the day, she\u2019d try again at night. No matter the effort, she didn\u2019t want to miss any family that might need help.<\/p>\n<p>Taiwan has done remarkably well during the coronavirus pandemic, but its economy has sustained damage all the same, especially in the tourism, transportation, and dining sectors. Some underprivileged families, as a result, have taken a hard hit. An example is Yan, mentioned at the beginning of this article. She had done well enough before the pandemic for Tzu Chi to cease their aid to her, but the pandemic turned the tables on her. In the time of COVID-19, she found herself needing help again.<\/p>\n<p>According to statistics from Taiwan\u2019s Ministry of Labor, nearly 30,000 employees had been put on unpaid leave as of mid-June\u2014higher than any time in the past decade. There had been 56 cases of massive layoffs by the end of April. Though by mid-June Taiwan had not recorded a single domestic coronavirus case in over two months, the slipping economy posed a big challenge to people who didn\u2019t have steady jobs, who had little money in their bank accounts, or who were sick and thus needed extra money to stay afloat. Tzu Chi\u2019s aid would help some of these people have an easier time financially during the economic downturn.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-71b1aeb0 elementor-section-full_width elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"71b1aeb0\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-no\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-f19812f\" data-id=\"f19812f\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-42c4d7b3 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"42c4d7b3\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h5><strong>A timely helping hand<\/strong><\/h5>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-16087ccd elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"16087ccd\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>\u201cThe first day I started making the phone calls, my mood took a nosedive, so much so that I had almost no appetite at lunch that day,\u201d said Cai Xue-ying (\u8521\u96ea\u6afb), a volunteer who lives in central Taiwan. \u201cMy heart grew very heavy because several families I had contacted were doing poorly.\u201d Cai explained that many people had been forced to work reduced hours or had their pay cut as a result of the pandemic, but because they didn\u2019t qualify for unemployment aid, getting by was a struggle. Though the difficulties some families were experiencing were not caused entirely by the pandemic, they needed help all the same. She said that among the families she contacted, as much as one third of them needed further care. She empathized with every one of them, but the story of a single-mother family especially made her heart wrench.<\/p><p>\u201cMy younger son and I have actually thought of taking our lives,\u201d said Guan, a single mother, when Cai called her. \u201cLife is simply too hard.\u201d She told Cai that her job was a hired caregiver for hospital patients, but since she was petite and thin, there weren\u2019t many she could care for. That had limited her income already, and the pandemic just made it worse. Her income had decreased during the pandemic because people had tried to stay away from hospitals for fear of contracting the virus. Her older son had graduated from college, but he hadn\u2019t been able to land a job, and thus couldn\u2019t help her out financially. Her younger son studied at a vocational high school. He was working two part-time jobs to support himself through school and ease her burden.<\/p><p>Sadly, one day when the younger son was heading back to his dormitory after work, he had an accident. He was so tired his attention drifted off, and he drove his motor scooter into a car parked on the side of the road. The indemnity he had to pay added insult to their financial injury. Guan and her son were so depressed they contemplated ending their lives. Cai\u2019s timely phone call brought a ray of hope to the family. The day after Cai called, she and other volunteers visited the family in person to express their care. Soon afterwards, Tzu Chi began helping the family again.<\/p><p>Wu was another former care recipient Tzu Chi started helping again after the round of phone calls. Volunteer Cai Shu-hui (\u8521\u6dd1\u8559), a resident of Taichung, central Taiwan, had previously helped care for him. His case was closed last year. But when Cai phoned the Wu family to find out how they had been doing during the pandemic, she discovered that they had not fared well.<\/p><p>When Cai and other volunteers visited the family to learn more about their needs, Wu, who had terminal oral cancer and couldn\u2019t talk, wrote these words on a piece of paper for them: \u201cI feel bad that my illness has made my family suffer. I\u2019m so worried I\u2019ll drag them down with me.\u201d These two sentences, though short, were full of his helplessness.<\/p><p>Cai learned during her visit that Wu had run up a 100,000 Taiwanese dollar (US$3,400) medical bill. He was very worried that his family would have a hard time paying it. His son had had to cut down on his work hours in order to accompany him on his regular trips to the hospital, and his wife was a cleaner at a supermarket, but her work was not steady. Their landlord, considering their constrained finances, had lowered their rent, but the family was still hard pressed to meet expenses.<\/p><p>After learning about their plight, Cai and her fellow volunteers decided to give the family emergency monetary aid.<\/p><p>\u201cThe minute we entered their home to deliver the aid,\u201d Cai said, \u201cthey took out their coin bank to donate to Tzu Chi. The bank was already 80 percent full.\u201d Though the family was having a hard time scraping together a living, they still wanted to help others. Despite being poor, they were rich at heart. Their kindness deeply impressed Cai. Volunteers will continue to provide emotional support to the family in addition to giving them financial aid.<\/p><p>The timely aid extended by Tzu Chi volunteers during this pandemic has brought warmth to many needy families. Hopefully, the pandemic will soon run its course and people\u2019s lives will return to normal.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-aee9a6b elementor-section-full_width elementor-reverse-mobile elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"aee9a6b\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-no\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-7e2db081\" data-id=\"7e2db081\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2d4c9b05 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"2d4c9b05\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>When the pandemic situation had eased in Taiwan, a group of volunteers and community residents who used to receive aid gathered at volunteer Lin Chun-jin\u2019s home to catch up on their lives.
