On the morning of September 17, the Kind Heart Foundation, a member organization of Kim Oanh Group, presented 250 gift packages to lonely elderly individuals without family support currently cared for at the Dong Nai Center for Social Work and the Provincial Children’s Protection Fund, as part of the group’s 2025 Vu Lan filial gratitude program.

Speaking at the event, Dang Thi Kim Oanh, Chairwoman of Kim Oanh Group, expressed heartfelt sentiments, emphasizing that beyond business activities, the group’s various branches consistently accompany the Kim Oanh Foundation in its charitable programs, demonstrating a strong sense of corporate social responsibility and compassion for the community.

In recent years, Kim Oanh Group has implemented a range of social initiatives, including providing medical equipment for COVID-19 prevention, supporting children orphaned by the pandemic, and visiting elderly individuals living alone. During each Vu Lan season, even though many seniors already receive state care, the group continues to organize visits and deliver gifts to spread kindness and bring joy to elderly seniors in their later years.

As part of its 2025 Vu Lan campaign, the Kind Heart Foundation is implementing the program titled "Vu Lan of Filial Piety – Spreading Love", with charitable visits to seven shelters and elderly care centers across Ho Chi Minh City and Dong Nai province. The total budget for the program exceeds VND 700 million (approx. USD 28,000), reflecting the group’s ongoing commitment to honoring and uplifting vulnerable populations.
