DNO - The Da Nang Red Cross Society, in coordination with the Australian Embassy in Vietnam and Save the Children International (SCI), organized a cash assistance distribution on Monday in Duy Nghia Commune for households with children affected by storms and floods in 2025.
The event was attended by Ms. Madeleine Jayne Plocki, Acting Counsellor for Development at the Australian Embassy in Vietnam; Ms. Vu Tuong Anh, Director of Finance and Support Services at SCI in Vietnam; Mr. Tran Duc Manh, SCI Project Manager; and Mr. Nguyen Tien Lam, Vice President of the Da Nang Red Cross Society.
This activity is part of the project “Emergency Relief for Families with Children Affected by Storms and Floods in 2025 in Da Nang and Gia Lai Province”. The project is funded by the Australian Government through the Australian Humanitarian Partnership (AHP), with a total budget of VND 6 billion.
In Da Nang alone, the project has implemented a VND 3 billion support package, focusing on 825 disadvantaged households in four communes: A Vuong, Vu Gia, Phuoc Tra and Duy Nghia.
Each household receives a standard cash grant of VND 3 million, with an additional VND 1 million provided to families with children under two years old, pregnant women, or members with disabilities.
Priority beneficiaries include poor and near-poor households, single-parent families raising young children, the elderly, and families with members suffering from long-term illness.
Ms. Madeleine Jayne Plocki, Acting Counsellor for Development at the Australian Embassy in Vietnam, shared “We hope that this direct cash assistance will help people flexibly meet their essential needs, ease difficulties, and stabilize their lives, especially as Lunar New Year 2026 is approaching”.
