HCM CITY— KOVA Paint Group has donated VNĐ2 billion (US$85,148) to the Government’s COVID-19 prevention and control fund.

Though the company itself has suffered from the impact of the pandemic on the market, it will also continue to give away KOVA scholarships and awards to disadvantaged students this year since their situation could also worsen due to the effects of COVID-19.

It has taken many measures against COVID-19 to protect its staff.

“We would like to contribute to COVID-19 prevention and control in the country and hope the pandemic will soon end,” Nguyễn Thị Hòe, chairwoman of KOVA Paint Group, said. VNS
