The fund will assist the families of AO victims in developing their household economy, such as poultry and fish farming, mushroom and vegetable cultivation, and tourism business.
Co-organized by the Vietnamese Embassy in Belgium and Chris Geykens, a representative of the Vietnam Association for Victims of Agent Orange/Dioxin (VAVA Hoi An) in Belgium, this year's event also aimed to mark the 50th anniversary of Vietnam-Belgium diplomatic ties and the 10th anniversary of the tournament.
Held for the first time in 2013, the event has so far raised more than 52,100 USD in support of AO victims in Hoi An.
