The Central Committee of the Vietnam Association of Victims of Agent Orange/dioxin (VAVA) and the National Humanitarian Portal 1400 is calling on organisations and individuals nationwide to support the campaign by texting DA CAM to 1409 from now to May 8. Each message means a donation worth 20,000 VND to the victims.

Speaking at the launching ceremony, VAVA Chairman Nguyen Van Rinh said the association has run the SMS campaign since 2011, collecting over 20 billion VND (858,200 USD) in total.
Last year, the programme raised nearly 1 billion VND, which was then used to repair houses for AO/dioxin victims, and present gifts to their families and care centres on special days.
This year, the programme sets a target of mobilising 2 billion VND.
