Hung Thinh Corporation has contributed VND 10 billion to the one-million meal program, continuing to accompany disadvantaged people in the context of the Covid-19 pandemic.

While Ho Chi Minh City continues to implement social isolation, hundreds of thousands of people find themselves in an increasingly difficult situation when they lose their jobs, their incomes and their standard of living is not guaranteed. During the fourth Covid-19 wave, Hung Thinh Corporation decided to accompany the program "Vietnam - Saigon Arm" to bring one million meals for the poor in Ho Chi Minh City.

This information was shared at the launching ceremony of the social welfare program "Vietnam - Saigon Arm" which took place on the afternoon of August 16th at the Vietnam Fatherland Front Committee in Ho Chi Minh City. The program was implemented by the Ho Chi Minh City Youth Union, the Vietnam Fatherland Front Committee of Ho Chi Minh City and companies under the two voluntary organizations "Vietnam Arm" and "Saigon Love".

Accordingly, from now until mid-September, the program is expected to bring one million meals for disadvantaged people including poor households in more than 4,000 isolated zones in Ho Chi Minh City, workers who lost their jobs and incomes due to social distancing. The meals are presented in two forms, including essentials and ready-made meals for those who cannot cook.
