In the wake of devastating floods and storms in northern Vietnam, people across the country have rallied to help those affected, demonstrating the nation's solidarity.

Danang: Free rides bring hope to flood-affected communities

On September 11, a parking lot in Danang was abuzz with activity as volunteers loaded trucks and buses with essential supplies. These convoys were part of a "free" transportation initiative organized by a local transportation company. 

Ho Ngoc Thanh, head of the Free Kindness Convoy Club, said the convoys carried 15 tons of supplies, including food, water and rescue equipment.

The goal was to quickly deliver aid to flood-stricken areas in the north. Donations continued to pour in, filling the vehicles. The company coordinated with local authorities to ensure that the aid reached the most affected areas.
