Ms. Hoang Thi Lan Chi, owner of Truong Chi Restaurant, said: “When I heard that many provinces and cities in the North suffered heavy damage due to natural disasters and responded to the call of the Vietnam Fatherland Front Committee of Quang Tri province and Gio Linh district to support the people of the Northern provinces to overcome the consequences of natural disasters, my family discussed with Mr. Nguyen Nhat Tan, in Ward 5, Gio Linh town, to plan support.

Chuong My District, Hanoi City was chosen by us to carry out the support activities, because previously, the officials and people of Chuong My District had come to give many gifts, helping Gio Linh people overcome the consequences caused by COVID-19 and natural disasters. This activity received a very positive and timely response from many Gio Linh people.

Hopefully, the small but sentimental gifts from Gio Linh people will help people in Chuong My district overcome difficulties and soon stabilize their lives and production."

With the spirit of solidarity and sharing of the people, the fundraising activities to support people in the northern provinces affected by natural disasters in Gio Linh district continue to spread widely.
