In the context of 2013 summer voluntary campaign, Van Don Island district Youth Union and Van Don Island district General Hospital have organized a free health care mission for over 100 children under 6 years old in Minh Chau commune.

Doctors and nurses from Van Don Island district General Hospital organize examination, health consultancy and deliver medicines free of charge (mainly tonic and improved resistance) for kids and their parents, worth VND25 million.

These free medicines are sponsored by Lac Hong Pharmaceutical Joint Stock Company, Truong Viet Joint Stock Company (Khuong Dinh ward, Thanh Xuan district, Hanoi), and Ms Pham Thi Yen (Cai Rong town, Van Don Island district).

On this occasion, youths have also collected rubbish on Minh Chau Beach, as well as calling on local people and tourists to help protect the environment.

Earlier, members of summer voluntary campaign visited and presented gifts for two needy kids (Pham Hoai Thuong, 4, in Nam Hai hamlet; and Nguyen Duc Anh, 14, in Tien Hai hamlet), of VND500,000 each.

The voluntary activities aim to create a forum for youths to connect and devote their skills and knowledge in a social mission, bringing creative and dynamic young doctors to the community.
