Readers of Dantri/DTiNews have donated a total VND125 million (USD5,434) to a poor family in the central province of Nghe An which needs urgent help to provide treatment for three ailing children. 

The donation granted for the family

Bui Van Hong, 36, and Tran Thi Phuong, 34, have an eldest child Bui Thi Ngoc Tram, eight, who faces blood disorders, causing poliosis. The third child Bui Van Luyen, four, has been diagnosed with kidney and hearing problems. Meanwhile, the four-month-old child Bui Van Khanh suffers from a cleft palate which troubles him in eating.

The couple only depends on farming and a modest income of the husband who works as a builder. They have incurred a big debt following the third child’s treatment.

After the article about the family was published on Dantri/DTiNews, many people helped financially.

Dantri/DTiNews reporters recently worked with local authorities to organise donations for the family.
