Suzy Cohen’s paintings are an original, harmonious combination of pointillist dots and colours, which express the beauty of people and landscapes or a still-life.
The Chairwoman of the Association for Vietnamese AO/Dioxin Children in France ( Vietnam les Enfants de la Dioxine), Vo Thi Loan, said the association has launched many charitable programmes after it was established in 2001 to support Vietnamese AO victims.
Since 2008, the proceeds from the association’s activities have provided 231 families in 21 provinces and cities across Vietnam with interest free loans of 7 million VND per family through provincial chapters of the Vietnamese Association of Victims of Agent Orange (AO)/dioxin (VAVA) and the Vietnam Red Cross.
