Despite facing a host of difficulties caused by heavy rains and floods, businesses in Hoa Binh province have still supported locals hit by the natural disasters through various activities.
Employees of Hoang Son Supermarket are delivering relief supplies at a collection point in Dong Tien ward, Hoa Binh city.
Hoa Binh was one of the localities hardest hit by Typhoon Yagi and its aftermath, with its infrastructure and crops severely damaged, and production disrupted.
Pham Thi Hoan, 35, who is running online business, said she and some other entrepreneurs have presented gifts to residents in Yen Bai and Thai Nguyen provinces, and in Tan Thanh commune, Hoa Binh’s Mai Chau district, with the total funding amounting to hundreds of millions of Vietnam dong.
Many enterprises in Hoa Binh have also organised charity programmes. Notably, Hoang Son Supermarket in Hoa Binh city contributed goods worth more than 50 million VND (2,022 USD) in support of residents in Yen Bai’s Van Chan district.

Apart from such specific programmes, the business community has also contributed to the provincial relief fund.
