On May 23, Vo Thi Tuyet Nhung, President of Red Cross Society of Dong Hoa Ward (Di An City), handed over VND 33.3 million to Huynh Thi Thuy's couple in Dong Hoa Ward to partially support the cost of Thuy's small child, who was undergoing cardiac surgery at Children's Hospital 2 (Ho Chi Minh City).

This is a pediatric patient who is more than 1 year old and is being treated at Children's Hospital 2, was put on a respirator. Thuy'shousehold is a poor family, her husband works as a worker, his wife has an unstable employment. From the day their sick child had to be admitted to the hospital for treatment, Thuy must be off her work to take care of the child at hospital, hence the circumstance of this family is even more difficult. Their child was prescribed urgent cardiac surgery, but because the parents are very poor and do not have enough money for the surgery.

Knowing about circumstance of Thuy's family, on May 17, Nhung posted information calling for donations to support the family. One day after the calling, there was a charity organization that pledged to support the cost of cardiac surgery, thus Nhung stopped calling for donations. During the call, Nhung received 33.3 million VND sent by donors everywhere for Thuy's child.

Red Cross Society of the ward then gave the amount of 33.3 million VND received from donors to Thuy's family to support partly the cost of treatment.
