On May 27, 2020, the Mongolia Autonomous Region Government donated 20,000 medical grade masks to sister city, Lansing Michigan. The Lansing Economic Area Partnership valued this donation at $100,000 USD. The masks arrived with the support of Capital Region International Airport. Dean Transportation provided the vehicles and staff needed to pickup the shipment. 10,000 masks were to be distributed to retirement homes, mental health facilities, and dental offices in the Lansing region. The other 10,000 masks were to be distributed to hard hit areas across the state with guidance from the Michigan Community Service Commission and State Emergency Operations Center. The Lansing Economic Area Partnership covered the $350 USD in transportation costs.
