Deputy General Director of VNA Doan Thi Tuyet Nhung said that in response to the call of the Presidium of the Central Committee of the Vietnam Fatherland Front to support people affected by storms and floods, VNA has launched a fundraising campaign across all units in the industry. The collective of staff, reporters, editors and workers of VNA actively responded with the spirit of "The healthy leaves cover the torn leaves", wishing to contribute to helping people in disaster-hit areas soon overcome difficulties and stabilize their lives.

The Deputy General Director of VNA shared that although this amount cannot be compared to the heavy losses and damages that the people of the Central Highlands and Central regions are suffering, it is a sincere sharing, demonstrating the responsibility of the staff, reporters and workers of the national news agency. The receiving process is continuing, as many units and individuals still send contributions through the agency's account.

During the time of heavy rains, floods and landslides in the Central and Central Highlands regions, VNA leaders directed the permanent offices and reporters to closely follow the scene, promptly and comprehensively reporting the natural disaster developments. In Lam Dong, Gia Lai and many other heavily affected areas, VNA reporters worked in extremely difficult conditions, from landslide areas to deep flooding areas, to convey accurate information about the damage as well as the relief efforts of the government, functional forces and people.

Not only ensuring its information mission, VNA also actively participates in support activities, providing more resources for the community, spreading the spirit of solidarity and humanity, and joining the whole country in supporting the Central and Central Highlands regions during this challenging period.

Receiving the donation, Mr. Cao Xuan Thao, representative of the Vietnam Fatherland Front, thanked VNA for its noble gesture to help people affected by natural disasters and floods. This is a practical and timely resource demonstrating the spirit of "mutual love and support" when our people are in difficulty and distress.

Mr. Cao Xuan Thao said that the Vietnam Fatherland Front is one of the first agencies to launch relief activities and is also the focal point for synthesizing resources to support compatriots. The reception and allocation work is carried out flexibly, not only through the central account but also encourages organizations and individuals to directly support the Fatherland Front at all levels or at the local level. All sources of contributions are recorded, monitored and made public and transparent.

People and businesses increasingly trust the Fatherland Front system and local authorities in receiving, managing and allocating relief resources. Besides, there are still many organizations and individuals who want to directly give support gifts. The Fatherland Front always acknowledges and creates conditions for this activity to be carried out in accordance with regulations and to the right subjects.

The representative of the Vietnam Fatherland Front sincerely thanks VNA for accompanying the activities of the Vietnam Fatherland Front in general and the work of supporting people in disaster areas in particular; hopes to continue to receive support from VNA in the coming time to continue to successfully complete the tasks assigned by the Party, State and people. The support fund will be allocated publicly and transparently by the Central Relief Committee - Central Committee of the Vietnam Fatherland Front, promptly transferred to the beneficiaries, quickly supporting people to stabilize their lives after storms and floods.

On the same day, the Central Committee of the Vietnam Fatherland Front received support from two individuals (Le Manh and Le Loi) in the amount of VND 500 million; Vang Anh Industrial Limited Liability Company VND 50 million; and Maytrip Travel Services Joint Stock Company VND 30 million.
