A bowl of cold soup to cool off on a summer day or a plate of roasted meat served with a bowl of hot rice?

As for Sung Thi H and her father, VND10,000 for the lunch with white rice, roasted peanuts and a free bowl of soup was familiar during her treatment in the National Hospital Of Acupuncture.

Sung Thi H. - a girl of the H'Mong ethnic group was born and raised in a poor family in Son La province. When she was born, she was as healthy as any other child. Unfortunately, due to high fever and convulsions, she was hospitalized and was diagnosed with encephalitis, which requires long-term treatment. Her family merely counts on agricultural production, but her parents have to sell all the garden, fields and agricultural tools   to spend money for her treatment. 20-month-old H. has never smiled, she always frowns and cries because of pain and aches caused by disease. Difficulties have piled up when the COVID-19 pandemic breaks out. She and  her father are in a dilemma, which is that they must stay at the hospital instead of returning to their hometown, so they have to live from hand to mouth. H.'s father sadly said: "After this period, we have no money left, so I have to take my daughter home to look after. We sold all the cattle, so we must go home".

Sung Thi H.’s family is just one of many cases in the Pediatric Ward of National Hospital Of Acupuncture who are trying to to live from hand to mouth to save money to cover treatment costs.

Understanding the difficulties of pediatric patients, For Vietnamese Stature Foundation cooperates with MoMo e-wallet to call for the support of benefactors through the program "Giving 3000 nutritious meals for pediatric patients in National Hospital Of Acupuncture".

To do this, we hope to receive 900,000 Golden Pigs to convert into VND45,000,000. Accordingly, with each Golden Pig donated from the MoMo users, benefactors commit to sponsor VND50. In addition, through the donation campaign at MoMo Heart with the goal of VND45,000,000 taking place parallel, we expect to receive VND90,000,000 to support 3,000 meals to children in 30 days. 

Any amount of money is valuable, any donation is appreciated. Any support from you will give more motivation for pediatric patients and their families to have treatment with peace of mind and reduce the burden during COVID-19 pandemic.
