Dinh Quan Agent Orange/ Dioxin Victims Association appeals donations for AO Victims Fund

The Association has mainly spent its funds on taking care of victims’ lives; for instance, paying visits to and offering gifts to victims on holidays, New Year Day, and Day for Agent Orange Victims; repairing and building houses of compassion for underpriviledged victims; making business loans to victims’ families, awarding “Give Strength to Bring Children to School” scholarships to victims’ children, and giving regular and unexpected allowances to truly needy victims.

In addition to above annual activities, the Association has solicited organizations and generous donors’ donations towards the building of Center for Agent Orange Victim and Disabled Children Care and Rehabilitation.

The construction is going to be finished and is scheduled to be put into use by August 10.
