Han Hong is mainly known for her strong voice and her famous song Heaven's Road. In fact she is not only a singer but also does a lot for charity. When COVID-19 hit Wuhan, Han felt she should do something. She called up famous people and the public to help Wuhan. "I want to call up my friends in the art circles to donate(捐款) and help people affected by this terrible virus outbreak," the 48-year-old singer said on her Sina Weibo, which has over 15 million followers. Within just a week, a large number of Chinese pop stars and the public went into action. Over 278 million yuan and lots of medical supplies(医疗物资) have been donated through her charity organization, Han Hong Love Charity Foundation, which she founded in 2012. Thousands of fans as well as other common people answered her call to help Wuhan. "When you're going through a situation like this, you would like to offer help. There are so many kind people out there," said a fan, who donated through Han's foundation. "It's good to know that there are trucks with medical supplies going straight to the medical workers." Han turned down interviews. Her friend said she was busy coordinating(协调) work in Wuhan. "Many people don't trust charity organizations to use their donations properly. We must make sure the donation process is open and clear. Also, we update(更新) and share detailed information online, so the public know which place the goods and money come from and go to, even a packet of instant noodles." said Han Hong.
