An
annual charitable run titled “Run for Children” will be held in Hanoi on
December 4 to raise funds for children who are going through treatment in
hospitals around the city.
The run will take place around Thien Quang
Lake under the collaboration of the Vietnam Union of Friendship Organizations,
Canada Embassy in Vietnam, Manulife Vietnam and KAT Corporation.
It will be open to all people who are also
encouraged to buy T-shirts, food, gifts and souvenirs sold by organizers to
donate to the fund. All proceeds will be used for helping children under cancer
and heart disease treatment.
The run was first launched in 2000 and it has
so far attracted the participation of 50,000 people who donated up to VND4
billion (US$190,500).
Last Sunday, the Consulate General of Canada
in Ho Chi Minh City in collaboration with the Canadian International School,
the Canadian Chamber of Commerce in Vietnam, and the HCMC Union of Friendship
Organizations organized the 15th Terry Fox Run in District 7’s Phu My Hung.
