Emergency Relief - Vietnam

Vietnam was hit by Typhoon Ketsana when it blew across the South China Sea from the Philippines and unleashed a month’s worth of rain in just 12 hours. It has left over 100 people dead and 170 000 people have reportedly been evacuated.

Viet Dang, GVN Vietnam Director sent us the following message:

"After the Philippines, the typhoon Ketsana has become much more stronger and hit the central region of Vietnam where our program is based. Luckily, no children in our program got hurt during the typhoon but it badly struck Tam Ky Baby Orphanage. The typhoon has also caused a lot of serious damage in many local communities near our program in Da Nang, Tam Ky and Quang Ngai. Stephanie (a volunteer) and I have been travelling and looking at the damaged areas in the surrounding villages. We have seen many lost lives, collapsed houses, broken power, water and roads. Please help us and our community." – Viet Dang
