The program including a charity auction of paintings and a music performance was held by a group of Vietnamese artists there. Ms. Nguyen Minh Nguyet, Vice Chairwoman of the Vietnam Literature and Arts Association in the Czech Republic, said: “The campaign has been launched for several days and the donors hope that their contributions will reach the flood victims. We are moved to see that some donate big gifts without revealing their names. We hope that our small contribution can partly help relieve the pain and loss of the flood victims.”
The program has raised 600.000 koruna (nearly 30,000 USD), which will be delivered the people affected by the floods in central Vietnam in November.
