Vinamilk, the Vietnam Dairy Products Joint Stock Company, personally delivered 500 cartons of milk and nearly 400 gift packages, including backpacks, notebooks, pens, and school supplies, to residents and students in four mountainous communes of Nghe An province.
Tuong Duong, Luong Minh, My Ly, and Nhon Mai are four communes severely affected by the historic floods following Typhoon No. 3. More than 400 houses were completely swept away, causing heavy damage to the locality and its people. The typhoon left behind flash floods and landslides that disrupted transportation, damaged houses, swept away much property, and seriously affected the lives of the people.
Vinamilk's relief team arrived promptly, bringing 500 cartons of milk and nearly 400 gift packages including backpacks, notebooks, pens, and school supplies to the people and students in the flood-affected areas. These were not just material gifts, but also the genuine care and affection from thousands of Vinamilk employees.
After the devastating floods, the roads leading to the mountainous communes of Tuong Duong, Luong Minh, My Ly, and Nhon Mai became extremely difficult to navigate. The sun blazed down, with temperatures nearing 40 degrees Celsius, but the working group persevered, traversing landslide-prone areas, muddy terrain, and jagged rocks.Even two weeks after the storm, scenes of devastation remain everywhere. People are still struggling to recover from the floods, facing countless hardships and shortages. Numerous landslides have brought vehicles to a standstill, and goods have to be transported by hand along difficult road sections.The first destination for the delegation was Thach Duong village (Tuong Duong commune, Nghe An province), located on the banks of the Lam River. This is one of the villages that suffered the most severe damage in the recent storm and floods. More than 110 households here were affected, with many houses and properties swept away or severely damaged.Mr. Nguyen Danh Dao - Director of Nghe An Dairy Factory ( thuộc Vinamilk) and members of the delegation visited, encouraged, and distributed milk and gifts to the people in Tuong Duong commune, hoping that they will quickly stabilize their lives.Representing Vinamilk, Mr. Trinh Xuan Dat – Chairman of the Trade Union of Nghe An Dairy Factory – shared: “Behind every carton of milk and every gift is the heartfelt generosity of Vinamilk employees. We hope this partnership will be a source of encouragement for the people to remain strong and for children to continue going to school and nurturing their dreams.”Continuing their journey, the group arrived at Luong Minh commune. Boxes of milk and gifts were handed directly to the people and students, providing them with renewed energy after many days of hardship.Mr. Nguyen Van Thang, Secretary of the Party Committee of Luong Minh commune (Nghe An province), on behalf of the local people, expressed his sincere gratitude to Vinamilk Joint Stock Company and the entire delegation.Traveling over 150km, the delegation arrived at My Ly border commune. This is one of the areas most severely affected, with more than 200 houses completely swept away by the floods. Gifts, boxes of milk, and sincere words of encouragement helped to alleviate some of the pain and loss suffered by the people here.“The flood swept everything away, and now we are left with nothing, not knowing where to turn. In this most difficult time, Vinamilk traveled a long distance to deliver milk and gifts directly to our people. These gifts not only help us alleviate our hardships but also provide moral support and give us renewed faith to get back on our feet and rebuild our lives,” shared Ms. Vi Thi Luong (My Ly commune).Concluding their journey, the delegation arrived at Nhon Mai commune – a mountainous area still facing many difficulties in terms of transportation and living conditions. Boxes of milk and gifts were then handed directly to the people and students there.
Amidst all the hardships, the grimy faces and bewildered eyes of those who had been distraught by the floods suddenly lit up with joy when the delegation brought gifts from Vinamilk, especially gifts specifically for the children.
In the children's eyes, there was not only joy at receiving gifts, but also hope – hope for a better new school year, despite the storm that had turned everything upside down. It was a moment that made all the hardships of the long journey seem lighter, because faith and love were still present, after the stormy days.
The children in the flood-affected areas were overjoyed when the delegation brought gifts from Vinamilk.Moc Chau Milk (a subsidiary of Vinamilk) provided emergency assistance to flood victims in Son La province with a total value of up to 127 million VND.
Mr. Nguyen Danh Dao - Director of Nghe An Dairy Factory ( thuộc Vinamilk) shared:"Only by going there and witnessing the damage firsthand can you truly understand the devastating power of natural disasters and the suffering of the people in the flooded areas. Although the two days of the program were very arduous, involving traveling hundreds of kilometers through the forest, seeing the joy of the people after receiving support and encouragement from the delegation made the trip very meaningful.""
Recently, Moc Chau Milk (a subsidiary of Vinamilk) also carried out emergency support activities for flood victims in Son La province, donating 200 cartons of milk along with over 50 million VND in cash contributed by the company's employees, bringing the total value of the support to 127 million VND.
This is a practical action to share the difficulties with people severely affected by floods, and at the same time provide them with nourishment and motivation to quickly stabilize their lives after the natural disaster.
