The Vietnam Youth Federation of Binh Dinh Province is offering free treatment and medication to 1,600 residents in the four communes of Phu My District, under the program “Humane Journey for Community Health 2011”.
A team of the federation also held a first-aid training and nutrition class for 100 parents of primary students. The team offered 500 crates of milk, donated by Friesland Campina Vietnam, and 40 scholarships worth VND250,000 each, donated by My Tai Company, a member of Binh Dinh Young Business Association.
The team members also mobilized 1,600 union members and students to register for blood donation.
The program is part of a new health care program called “Young Doctors Follow Teachings of Uncle Ho – Volunteer for Community Health”, launched by the Viet Nam Federation of Youth Unions, Vietnamese Young Doctors’ Association and Sai Gon Giai Phong Newspaper.
The program has been launched to commemorate the 121st birth anniversary of Uncle Ho, 100th anniversary since Uncle Ho left Vietnam to find ways for national salvation and to mark the XIII National Assembly Elections.
