(VOV) -The Fund for Vietnamese Children with Disabilities has handed over nine gifts worth VND5 million each to disabled children of officers and soldiers of Brigade 146 under the Vietnam People’s Navy.
At an exchange programme in HCM City on June 1, the fund decided to provide VND1.5 million in monthly allowances for these children and cover their medical expenses.
It also presented rewards to five disabled children who overcome hardship to excel in their studies.
Director of the Fund priest Phan Khac Tu spoke of the difficult task entrusted to officers and soldiers who are garrisoned on remote sea and islands, and noted that the gifts to their children will help them stand firm to safeguard national sovereignty.
He announced a three-month fund-raising campaign aiming to improve the living conditions of islanders’ disabled children, enable them to go to school, and generate jobs for them.
The campaign will last through to August 30.
