Following the spread of COVID-19, JCCU donated 1,746,000 masks to university co-op faculty, staff and students.

Due to the spread of COVID-19 infection, the number of visits to the campus has significantly reduced and the university co-ops nationwide have been greatly affected. JCCU donated a total of 1,746,000 masks (58,200 boxes with each box containing 30 masks) to 195 university co-ops nationwide for faculty, staff, and students to use.
