The storm and its aftermath have resulted in significant loss of life, extensive property damage, and severe disruption to local infrastructure.
In response to the urgent situation, Carlsberg Vietnam, together with its employees, has stepped up to provide critical support. The company, along with its staff, has donated more than 1 billion VND to the two hardest-hit provinces, Thai Nguyen and Lao Cai.
The donation was sourced from both the company and voluntary contributions from Carlsberg Vietnam employees. In the spirit of solidarity and mutual support, Carlsberg Vietnam initiated a call for donations among its employees. This effort reflects the company's deep empathy and commitment, as well as its collective effort to assist the people of northern Vietnam in overcoming the challenges they face.
These funds have been directly transferred to the Vietnam Fatherland Front Committees in Thai Nguyen and Lao Cai provinces. They will be used to repair collapsed and damaged homes, support families facing severe losses or injuries, and provide essential aid to help residents rebuild and restore their lives after the disaster.
Andrew Khan, Managing Director of Carlsberg Vietnam, expressed: "With over 30 years of operations in Vietnam, we understand our role and responsibility towards the community and are committed to offering our support during challenging times. In the face of adversity, our mission compels us to stand together, offering support and hope".
"Through this donation, we aim to ease the burden faced by those affected by Typhoon Yagi and the floods. Our hearts go out to every family impacted, and we hope that this gesture will bring some relief and help rebuild lives. Together, we can overcome these hardships and move forward with renewed strength and unity," he added.
