The Vietnamese Women and People Chapters in Ufa, the Russian Republic of Bashkorostan, have raised 10,200 USD to help save 10 Vietnamese children suffering from congenital heart defects.

Additionally, the chapters plan to sell DVDs on Vietnamese Cultural Days in Ufa in order to win support from Vietnamese in the city and help them better understand about the homeland.

Founded in 2002 with 3,000 members, the Vietnamese People Chapter in Bashkorostan has actively involved in humanitarian and fund raising activities to support disadvantaged and disaster-hit Vietnamese people in the homeland./.
