The outbreak of the novel coronavirus pneumonia was fierce, and Wuhan in Hubei province has been severely affected by the epidemic.
In addition to the medical workers saving lives on the main 'battlefield', there has also been a group of ordinary people engaged in the fight against the epidemic. Volunteers from POWERCHINA Hubei Engineering Co (HYPEC) have formed a "love harbor" group to help Wuhan residents.

On Feb 15, there was a heavy snowfall in Wuhan, the first since the Spring Festival. Early on the morning on Feb 16, in the Tieji Shengshi Jiayuan No 19 and 20 buildings housing estate in Wuhan, "love harbor" volunteers began their work.
Residents in the housing estate had responded positively to the government's call to stay indoors more and had put their garbage outside their doors for centralized disposal.
The "love harbor" volunteers took the initiative and began undertaking community disinfection and removing the garbage. The volunteers also help residents buy vegetables, eggs, meat and other daily supplies. At present, there are 165 people in 46 households in the housing estate altogether. During the epidemic, the residents can fully guarantee their living needs without leaving their homes.
What's more, an emergency material purchasing team composed mainly of "love harbor" volunteers was set up after HYPEC received a request to buy more epidemic prevention materials.

They searched for the most urgently needed protective clothing, masks and other key epidemic prevention materials throughout the country, and arranged the whole purchasing and delivery process, including purchasing plan declarations, signing for receipts, inspections, and warehousing.
