HCM City — The Consular Club in HCM City will hold its annual 26th annual International Charity Bazaar on November 9 at Adora Convention Centre in Tân Bình District.

The bazaar will offer handicrafts, food and other items from all around the world. There will be traditional dance performances from India, Indonesia and Thailand, and a performance of a jazz guitarist from the UK.

Visitors can join a raffle draw offering prizes such as vouchers for deluxe resorts and hotels around Việt Nam, spa packages, and lunch or dinner vouchers for luxury restaurants in HCM City, among others.

All proceeds from the event will be used to enhance the lives of disadvantaged people in South Việt Nam.

In 2018, the bazaar raised US$70,000 for 10 charity projects, such as scholarships for children and teenagers, infrastructure that will help supply and store fresh water, and renovation of women’s shelters.

The bazaar will open from 9.30pm to 3pm at 431 Hoàng Văn Thụ Street in Tân Bình District. Entry tickets at VNĐ80,000 are on sale at Terraverde Travel in District 1 and Saigon Van International Relocations in District 2.
