The program aims to honour benefactors who actively contributed to the Vietnam Children’s Fund in 2013 and called on domestic and foreign companies and individuals to further support poor children, especially during the Lunar New Year (Tet).
Vice State President Nguyen Thi Doan acknowledged that in 2013, children, the elderly, disabled people and orphans were paid due attention and she expressed her hope that more benefactors will continue to join hands to help poor children have a warm and happy Tet.
In 2013, the Children’s Fund raised VND62.763 billion, reaching 125% of the target, to support 1.5 million disadvantaged children.
To further support children in the future, the fund also hopes to receive more donations from benefactors through text messages: MX sent 1408 from January 11 to March 11 and each sms is worth VND16,000.
