Wuhan Report: How Much Did Your Hubuxiang Snack Stall Donate?

The earthquake donation roll call extends from the largest companies in China down to the smallest. This photo is from a poster on Hubuxiang, an alley in Wuhan famous for its dozens of stalls selling tasty snacks. About 80 stalls are listed, with individual donations as small as 10 RMB mentioned. Most of the snacks here cost 1-3 RMB, and thousands of people eat on Hubuxiang every day, so 10 RMB isn’t exactly a generous donation, even for these small-time proprietors. I wonder whether those in the 10 RMB group are proud or ashamed to have their name and donation amount listed like this — probably a bit of both.

    The donation is not tested by the quantity, but the action to donate.Even someone has one million yuan, then he donate one yuan for hit zone, I think he should not be accused.Because he is doing that for the people needed.
