In 2015, the National Fund for Vietnamese Children plans to raise 75 billion VND from domestic and international resources for programmes to protect and care for children and provide education assistance.
Addressing at the meeting, Vice President Nguyen Thi Doan suggested the fund focus on building more boarding scholls for ethnic children and playgrounds this year.
In order to operate the fund effectively, the Vice President also proposed to implement programs and plans based on local specific needs and balance the assistance resources to connect projects with specific donors.
