“通过这次活动，我更多的是感受到了每一个人人性中的光辉，感受到了集体的力量，感受到了同胞间的爱是双箭头的。”马恬儿说道。
"Through this activity, I felt the bright side of humanity, the power as a collective, as well as the love between my Chinese compatriots." said Tianer.

今年1月，马恬儿刚结束假期，开始新学期的课业。当国内新冠肺炎的报道首次出现在马恬儿眼前时，她的心一下子就揪住了。作为纽卡斯尔中国学生学者联谊会的主席，马恬儿立即与学联管理层召开了会议，希望借助学联的力量集合起来为国内抗疫献一份力。
In January 2020, Tianer had just finished her vacation and began her new term in school. When she first saw reports about COVID-19 breaking out in China, she was worried. As the chairman of CSSA Newcastle, Tianer immediately held a meeting with the management of the Association, hoping to gather the strength of the Association to contribute to the epidemic prevention work back home.
在小伙伴的支持配合下，马恬儿代表学联跟当地领事馆表达了募捐的想法，立即得到了领事馆的同意和其他学联的积极响应。在筹划募捐活动中，马恬儿与其学联成员也积极与学校联系，并获得了学校的场地支持。
With the support and cooperation of her peers, Tianer, on behalf of CSSA Newcastle, suggested the idea of fund-raising to the local consulate and immediately received consent from them. There were positive response from other school federations as well. While planning for fund-raising activities, Tianer and the members of CSSA Newcastle also actively contacted and received the support from the school.
经过4天的努力，马恬儿带领学联成员进行线上募捐和线下募捐，并在驻英大使馆的帮助下，所得善款全数购买了防护服、医用口罩等防疫物资，及时捐给了国内物资短缺的医院。
After working on it for four days, under the leadership of Tianer, the members of the Association conducted online and offline fund-raising. With the help of the Embassy of China in the UK, all the proceeds were used to purchase protective clothing, medical masks and other healthcare equipment. The items were then donated to hospitals in China facing a shortage of medical supplies.
“疫情期间，很多同学都减少了外出，但同学们就算在家也会协助、支持募捐活动，比如设计海报、编辑宣传文案等，大家都用不同的形式贡献了自己的力量。我们的根在中国，身在异乡的我们都想为祖国渡过这次难关尽一份微薄之力，跟祖国一起共克时艰。” 在战“疫”中，马恬儿用实际行动诠释了当代留学生的责任与担当，以一颗赤子之心与国同行。
"During the pandemic, many students tried their best not to go out. But even at home, they still supported fund-raising activities, such as designing posters and editing publicity materials. All of us joined hands to combat COVID-19 in different ways. Our roots are in China, and we all want to help overcome the difficulties together with our motherland." During the battle against COVID-19, Tianer demonstrated the responsibility of modern international students through practical actions.

当国内疫情得到控制，马恬儿准备松一口气时，国外疫情竟开始蔓延了，这让她始料未及。马恬儿坦言：“其实并没有预料到会蔓延得如此之快，我也没有提前囤积口罩之类的防疫物品。”正当海外留学生纷纷选择回国时，马恬儿考虑再三，决定留在英国。
Just when the epidemic in China got under control, it began to spread overseas, very much out of her expectations. "In fact, I didnt expect the epidemic to spread so fast, and I didnt stock up on equipment such as face masks in advance." said Tianer. When many overseas students choose to return home, Tianer thought about it and decided to stay in the UK.
当国内疫情发生时，马恬儿跟她的小伙伴不远万里送物资；当中国留学生在异国遇到困难时，她跟小伙伴们又挺身而出。
When COVID-19 broke out in China, Tianer and her friends made donations for their Motherland thousands of miles away. When Chinese students were facing difficulties overseas, she and her friends lent a helping hand.

作为纽大中国学联主席，马恬儿报名成为了全英学联抗疫爱心组委员，给中国留学生派发“健康包”。在正式发放前，马恬儿多次参与了领区内的讨论会议，结合经验，与各个学联分享了“健康包”派发的想法和建议，最后大家一起商讨出了派发原则、派发方法、派发时间、负责人以及应急措施等派发方案。
As the president of CSSA Newcastle, Tianer signed up to become a member of the anti-epidemic group of the CSSA in UK universities and distributed health kits to Chinese students. Before the official distribution, Tianer participated in various discussions, sharing ideas with other CSSA based on her experience. They also decided on the details regarding the distribution such as eligibility criteria, date and method of distribution.
据马恬儿透露，“健康包”派发涉及物资的搬运、分装，领取人信息登记，划定分发区域，规定领取距离等多方面的工作，大部分区域负责人甚至每天工作至凌晨四五点。“同学们尽自己所能，共享最大的善意，我们坚信逆行是有意义，有价值的！”
According to Tianer, in order to distribute health kits, they had to handle things such as registration information of recipients, dividing distribution areas among themselves and stipulated social distancing measures. Most of the regional leaders had to work until 4 or 5 in the morning every day. "Students tried their best to share kindness, and we firmly believe that this is meaningful and valuable!"

疫情在全球发生，海外华人的动态成为大家关注的热点，马恬儿等华人群体勇于担当、乐于奉献的善举得到了当地侨界、媒体、警察局、市政厅的赞同和支持。通过媒体，马恬儿劝导大家做好防护措施，得到了当地社区的良好反馈。纽卡斯尔大学校长更是亲自发送邮件：“Viruses don’t discriminate. And neither do we（病毒不会在意肤色种族，我们更不应该存有歧视之心）”，表达了对中国学生的支持。
As the number of COVID-19 cases in the world increases dramatically, the dynamics of overseas Chinese have become a hot topic of concern. The Chinese groups such as Tianer’s are brave to take on responsibilities to help and contribute to the society. Their actions have been supported by overseas Chinese compatriots, the media, the police as well as the city hall. Through the media, Tianer advised everyone to take protective measures and received positive feedback from the local community. The president of Newcastle University sent an email in person, saying “Viruses do not discriminate. And neither do we", and expressed support for Chinese students.
