In March 2020, VPBank and its subsidiary FeCredit transferred VNĐ15 billion to the Việt Nam Fatherland Front Central Committee and relevant functional units such as the Ministry of Health and the National Steering Committee on COVID-19 Prevention and Control to contribute to the response and reduction of damage from the pandemic to the community. VPBank's total contribution to society to combat the pandemic has reached VNĐ25 billion.

VPBank believed that with the Government’s determination and help from the business community and people nationwide, Đà Nẵng City and Quảng Nam Province, as well as the country, would definitely win against the pandemic. The country would soon restore economic and social stability and continue to become a global bright spot in the prevention and control of COVID- 19. — VNS
