FUMI Hibachi Sushi & Bar in Duluth turned its focus on Sept. 17 to helping victims of Hurricanes Harvey and Irma.

All the revenue raised that night, a total of $74,845 will go toward relief efforts in Texas, Florida and Georgia through the Tzu Chi Foundation.

Dozens of Chinese American groups have joined the effort for this fundraising, including AtlantaChineseLife.com, Atlanta Chinese Entrepreneur Club, Chinese Business Association of Atlanta, Association of Chinese Professionals, Atlanta Contemporary Chinese Academy and 18 other local Chinese businesses and groups.
