Staff Comments
1. Because the Chinese Embassy and the Shenzhen Mammoth Charity Foundation of China jointly donated 2,000 COVID-19 test kits to the Philippine government, and because 1,000 kits were donated by Shenzhen Mammoth Charity Foundation, AidData assumes the Chinese Embassy provided the remaining 1,000 tests. The total value of the donation is estimated to be $19,460.00, with each donor contributing an estimated USD 9,730.00 (USD 19,460.00 / 2 known contributors = USD 9,730.00).
