 CAN THO – The Saigon Times Group, through its Saigon Times-Noi Vong Tay Lon program, coordinated with the Women’s Union of Hau Giang Province to donate 100 gift sets to poor people in Phuong Binh Commune, Phung Hiep District that have been affected by Covid-19 this morning, April 28.

Each gift set contained two face masks and VND100,000 in cash, which were provided by the Saigon Times-Noi Vong Tay Lon program, and 10 kilos of rice, which came from the Women's Union.

“I’m a self-employed worker, but Covid-19 has made me become unemployed and run out of money. I’m very happy when receiving the gift,” said Doan Thi Dung, 70.

Nguyen Thi Tuyet Loan, chairwoman of the Hau Giang Women’s Union, said thanks to donations from many generous donors, the union has given more than 9,400 hand soap and hand sanitizer bottles, 258,560 face masks, two water purifying machines, and many other necessities to over 7,800 poor people. It has also distributed over 8.5 tons of rice to the needy since April 20.

“We really appreciate support from the donors, which has been not only their donations but also their encouragement and love for disadvantaged people. I hope that we will continue to stay side by side and support each other to overcome this difficult time,” Loan said.
