Mrs. Carmen Johnson, the director of Pingping’s department, issued the award. She told the more than 200 attendees about Ms. Yu’s volunteer work in helping raise awareness in the local community and urging community leaders to help stop organ harvesting atrocities.

She said she admired Ms. Yu for her and other Minnesota volunteers’ unyielding efforts to reveal the persecution to the Minnesotans and the community leaders, including the legislature.

She also mentioned the recently passed MN Senate Resolution 2090 which condemns forced organ harvesting from prisoners of conscience in China. She thanked Ms. Yu for helping her and other Minnesotans learn about the persecution.
