Heavy rains in a short time caused floodwater in many central provinces to rise very quickly, many areas were divided. A lot of damage has been recorded. Floodwaters washed away crops and property and left many dead and missing. Cases of people taking advantage of natural disasters and epidemics are not uncommon, but most of the benefactors acted responsibly and worked to resolve issues promptly.
It makes more sense when benefactors seek to support the elderly, the poor, and the lonely because of their limited means or skills, such as not having a smartphone, not having the Internet, or not knowing how to find information.
After the end of Dan On Foundation’s annual charity activities, we were busy with year-end work and preparing to welcome the Lunar New Year. On the last day of January 2021, we returned to the Central region for the second time to continue the previous trip in December 2020.

Finish the stage to complete the preparations for the next day. When the bus took us back to town, dusk fell like a curtain and it started to rain.
Climbing through the hilly roads, the second time we arrived at the communes scattered in the highlands of the Son Ha district as scheduled. However, it is not possible to change the difficult life of this place overnight. Every gift given to each family is a comforting comfort and hope for a better tomorrow.
At the end of the trip, the delegation thanked the local brothers and sisters for joining hands during the trip, overcoming many difficulties and fatigue to complete the set plan. On the way back, I couldn’t stop thinking when will I come back to this place? How can we help bring about sustainable living to struggling families and disadvantaged children? How can we help children go to school? They will happily choose the learning path so that in the future, they will join hands to improve the village, overcome difficulties, and build a happy life!
During 2020/2021, we reached out to flood-affected people in central Vietnam and worked to provide relief to more than 3,000 families. With these efforts and future efforts, we look forward to your support and joining hands to contribute to building a brighter future for those who are on the verge of hopelessness.
The Dan On Foundation is a non-profit organization founded by Mr. Dan On. On a business trip to Vietnam in 1992, he witnessed many children soliciting in the streets of Ho Chi Minh City.
Moved by their plight and determined to alleviate their hardship, he decided to aid the Deaf & Mute Schools as well as funded the to teach them the skills and language needed to escape the vicious poverty cycle. The program has been successfully run by several schools and over 30 nuns. For this humanitarian project, Dan On Foods provide the funding to the Dan On Foundation with the help of donations from
our business associates.
We’ve been able to raise funos for the continuous support of disenfranchised children and disabled adults. In this and future endeavors, we would like to ask for your support and join hands to help build a brighter future for those on the brink of hopelessness.
