More than 434 billion VND (18.6 million USD) was used to support over 562,000 needy people during May, as part of the 2020 humanitarian month programme run by the Vietnam Red Cross Society (VRCS).
Construction of 154 Red Cross houses for disadvantaged households and families of people who contributed to the country’s revolutionary cause in Hanoi’s Ung Hoa district began with an opening ceremony on April 21.
The Vietnam Red Cross Society (VNRC)’s “Red-Cross house” model has helped thousands of impoverished residents in disaster-affected localities build or repair their houses which were destroyed by floods and storms.
The Vietnam Red Cross Society was selected to represent national organisations in Southeast Asia to host a meeting marking International Day for Disaster Reduction in Quang Nam on Oct.13.
