To join the charity programme, people can access https://bit.ly/GoiTronYeuThuong and donate using ZaloPay.

For every VNĐ122,200 ($5.3) they pay to buy a package containing rice, cooking oil, soy sauce, biscuits, and others. ZaloPay will contribute VNĐ20,000 (US$0.87).

The packages will be sent to the Red Cross for handing over to beneficiaries in districts 8, Gò Vấp, Tân Phú, and Bình Tân.
