During the meeting, the nuns collectively contributed nearly VND1 billion (US$37,930) to support people severely affected by storm Bualoi. The Ho Chi Minh City Nun Affairs' Subcommittee will continue to receive donations from nuns and monasteries in order to organize delegations to visit and assist communities in storm- and flood-hit areas in the coming weeks.
With guidance and support from the Executive Boards of the Vietnam Buddhist Sangha in provinces and cities, the Ho Chi Minh City Nun Affairs’ Subcommittee is expected to visit and deliver relief packages to help residents recover from the severe damage caused by recent storms and floods. The delegation will be led by Venerable Nun Thich Nu Phap Nhu, Standing Deputy Head of the Ho Chi Minh City Nun Affairs’ Subcommittee.
