在千里之外的美达菲Granby总校区，有一群人跨越了国家的界限，发出了最温暖的声音。美达菲学校总校长Steve Griffin先生代表他们发来一份鼓舞人心的校长信：

Thousands of miles away, at MacDuffie's main campus in Granby, there is a group of people whose warm voices reach across the divide. On their behalf, Steve Griffin, Principal of MacDuffie School, sent a letter of encouragement:

美国美达菲学校格里芬校长

Hi, this is Mr. Griffin from the MacDuffie school in Granby, Massachusetts. This is a message to all the students and faculty at MacDuffie school campuses in China. We know that you're suffering over there dealing with the spread of the corona virus, and it's having an impact on you and on your education. I just want to encourage you as you're in quarantine and then as you return back to classes that you can get through this, we're thinking of you over here. In Granby, our students have done some fund raising looking to raise money and supplies to help the people who are affected in Wuhan.

And we're also thinking of you. So best wishes and we will get through this together. Thanks.

嗨，我是马萨诸塞州格兰比市美达菲学校的格里芬校长。这是给中国美达菲学校全体师生的信息。我们知道，你们在应对新型冠状病毒的传播方面正在遭受痛苦，这对你们以及你们的教育产生了影响。我在此鼓励你们，虽然你们目前面临疫情，但你们肯定可以度过这个难关回到课堂之中，我们在此等待你们。在格兰比，我们的学生已经做了一些筹款活动，希望能筹集到资金和物资来帮助武汉受灾的人们。

我们也在此想念你们。祝福你们，我们会一起度过难关的。谢谢。

总校长希望各校学生践行美达菲学校CIRCLE VALUE价值观，展现应对困难的卓越智慧、勇气和集体精神。作为传承130年的美达菲价值观，其力量不应仅在顺境中，更应在逆境中展现。

Mr. Griffin hopes that students in all schools will practice the CIRCLE values of MacDuffie School and show their outstanding wisdom, courage, and collective spirit in dealing with the current difficult situation. With a legacy of 130 years in the United States, our strength should show not only in good times, but also in adversity.

同有一腔热忱，同为美达菲人

Same MacDuffie Community, Same Passion

美国美达菲学子在获悉中国疫情后自发展开募捐活动捐款捐物，筹集资金购买口罩、护目镜等急需物资发往中国校区，并积极与中国美达菲校区学生，希望贡献自己的力量，帮助中国美达菲学子早日走出阴霾，这展现了美达菲血液中的集体精神和善念。

After learning about the current epidemic in China, MacDuffie students in America started a fundraiser to collect and donate money and goods including masks, goggles, and other urgently needed materials. After sending them to the campuses in China, they contacted the students in the Chinese MacDuffie campuses to contribute their own strength and send their well wishes. Their hope is a safe end to this situation as soon as possible. Truly this shows the collective spirit and kindness running through MacDuffie's blood.

在此次募捐活动中，我们看到来自中国美达菲学子的身影，他们积极行动向周围的人宣传、普及疫情知识，为同胞、为祖国发声，积极投身社会慈善活动，以国际视野照见中国未来。

In addition to the fund-raising, students actively promoted and popularized epidemic knowledge to people around them, spoke on behalf of their compatriots and their motherland, and actively participated in social charities to help promote China's future from an international perspective.
