Artifacts showcasing Chinese American history donated to Beijing museum

The donation was organized by Zhao Sihong, a Chinese American author and philanthropist.

She said that so far more than 5,000 artifacts on Chinese American history have been donated to more than 30 museums all over China.

The group of donors also went to the Beijing Olympic Museum earlier, and an Olympic torch, which was held by Edwin Lee during the 2008 Beijing Olympics torch relay in San Francisco, was donated there.

More artifacts will be donated to the National Museum of China, according to Zhao.
