VTV.vn - Nearly ten thousand pedestrians joined a walk as a tribute to the 56th Agent Orange Victims' Day in Ho Chi Minh City.

This was the 11th charity event of its kind aimed at raising money for Agent Orange victims and people with disabilities.

All the donations gathered at the event will be directed to the Red Cross in Ho Chi Minh City. The walk delivered a message of compassion and kindness for disadvantaged people.

Moreover, it is a token of good will to boost the morale of these individuals. Over the years, the program has helped build many schools and facilities.

2016 saw Red Cross Vietnam assist 2,900 Agent Orange victims with many practical gifts, grants and home repairs.  Alongside the walk, there were also blood donation booths running simultaneously.
