From 13th to 15th October, FIT Group and company’s members and MT organized to give gift, health check up and free medicine for minority poor ethnic in Bach Ngoc commune, Xuyen district, Ha Giang province. From 2016, FIT and MT have committed and efforted to hold free medical treatment for the poor and needy in the poorer provinces of the South. To expand its activities to many regions of the country, FIT and MT continued to co-operate this time in Ha Giang. This is the first program to be held in the North.
Vi Xuyen is a district of 15 ethnic groups including Tay, Nung, Dao, Lo Lo, Mong, etc. Their livelihoods are associated with upland fields, the economy is heavily dependent on short-term cash crops. As the weather changes, people’s lives are more difficult, epidemics spread quickly and widely, but health care facilities are limited. Therefore, the volunteer program to give gifts, medical examinations and free medicine this time is very meaningful and is the waiting of the children of Bach Ngoc when volunteers surveyed the situation here.
To give the best preparation, organizers have prepared plastic chairs and handed out 1,000 bread and Chung cake. After finishing the program, the delegation offered more than 1,000 necessary products sponsored by FIT group’s members like DR. Kool toothpaste, Vikoda drinking water, dried fruits and many medicinal items which needed for each villager. In a mountainous province where there is a shortage of many things, the gifts of the program are very meaningful to the people there, and for that reason they are glad to receive it. In addition, volunteers also organized fun activities and gave 300 gifts preparing for new year school for childrens in the village.
“We look forward to the delegation here, there are many patients without the ultrasound machine. Doctor please ultrasound carefully to see what liver disease I have”
“I feel like a sharp pain when urinating, please give me medicine that cures this disease.”
“I have been pregnant for seven months and I have gone to the doctor in my district just once, as I don’t have much money to go more. Could you check if my baby is healthy, please?”
The people’s honest words there give a indescriptive emotion to FIT staffs who participated in this program and show us the necessary of those programs which FIT and MT is doing.
With great significance of the program, in the coming time, FIT Group is committed to implementing programs not only the most meaningful but also the most practical to help people in difficult circumstances across the country.
