The Rotary Club of Saigon International participated in two global grant projects with
District 3740 in Korea that have corrected congenital heart disease for 100 Vietnamese children
since 2023. The $125,000 Heart-to-Heart project helps low-income families bridge the gap
between what the government covers and what they're able to pay out of pocket. "We chose
pediatric heart surgery because, with a relatively small contribution of $1,500 from us, we
can quite literally save a child's life," says Hoa Nguyen, president-elect of the club. Rotary
contributions are matched by the VinaCapital Foundation and the Vietnamese government.
The impact on livelihoods is significant, Nguyen notes, as caregivers are able to return to the
workforce after their child's recovery.
西貢國際扶輪社與韓國3740地區合作進行了兩項全球獎助金計畫,自2023年以來,已為
100名越南兒童矯正了先天性心臟病。其中一項名為「心連心」的計畫耗資12.5萬美元,旨在
幫助低收入家庭彌補政府健保覆蓋範圍與他們自費能力之間的差距。該社社長當選人阮華說:
「我們選擇兒科心臟手術,是因為我們只需捐1500美元,就能實實在在地挽救一個孩子的生
命。」扶輪社的捐款將由維娜首都基金會和越南政府進行分配捐款。阮華指出,該計畫對家庭
生計的影響非常顯著,因為照顧者在孩子康復後能夠重返工作崗位。
