Mr. Luu Kim Oai, Member of the Standing Committee of the Vietnam Red Cross Central Committee and Chairman of the Provincial Red Cross Society, stated: “This year's Humanitarian Month, themed “80 Years – A Journey of Compassion for the Community,” has seen widespread humanitarian aid activities implemented from the provincial level to the grassroots, creating a positive ripple effect in society. The Provincial Red Cross Society continues to play a core role as a bridge and coordinator in humanitarian work; prioritizing the implementation of sustainable livelihood support models, providing people with the “tools” to proactively develop their economy, gradually rise out of poverty, and contribute to ensuring social security.”
Mr. Luu Kim Oai called on all levels, sectors, organizations, businesses, and the entire society to continue joining hands in responding to the humanitarian month, aiming to raise approximately 8 billion VND during the 2026 humanitarian month in the province. The Provincial Red Cross Society, in coordination with local authorities, provided support to An Cu commune with 3 Red Cross houses, 40 livelihood support households, and 24 scholarships, totaling 900 million VND funded by the Vietnam Red Cross Society. In addition, they supported Van Khanh commune with 2 rural traffic bridges, Go Quao commune with 3 community water filtration systems, and Vinh Thuan commune with 2 community water filtration systems...
This year's Humanitarian Month activities not only share immediate difficulties but also aim to create livelihoods and provide opportunities for people to gradually stabilize their lives. Receiving 20 million VND in support from the Thien Tam Fund of Vingroup , Ms. Le Thi Mai, residing in Thang Loi hamlet, Vinh Tuy commune, said: “My family is classified as a poor household, and life is difficult. The care and assistance from the Red Cross and benefactors is a motivation for us to strive to improve our lives and achieve stability.”

It is expected that more than 2,000 units of blood will be collected through this activity.
