Gifts for 140 child patients at Tumor Hospital

On June 9, 2014, on behalf of the Vietnam Compassion, Hoa-Mai Humanitarian Club (a division of ViDan Foundation) and respective donors from overseas Most Rev. Thich Khong Tanh and Rev. Thich Vien Hy visited 140 young patients at the "Ho Chi Minh City Tumor Hospital" (Bệnh viện Ung Bướu) and distribute gifts to their families. Each family receives $15 USD.

The support program was formed in 2008 by Dr. Phan Minh Hien in France with contributions and assistance of Most Rev. Thich Khong Tanh (Lien-Tri Pagoda), Hoa-Mai Humanitarian Club and supporters in France, Canada, and the USA.

The next program is to distribute special gifts to the unfortunate children at the Full moon Festival (Tết Trung Thu) which is planned for the first week of November 2014.

Per Dr. Phan, most of the child patients are in the last days of their lives since the tumors were later discovered and their families are too poor to pay for the costly treatments.
