The communication campaign aimed at victims of Agent Orange/dioxin in Vietnam is a project carried out by the “Orange Color” project team of Communication major students from FPT University in Hanoi: Tran Tien Anh, Ho Nam Khoa, Vu Thi Van Anh, Hoang Quy Duong, and Le Sy Phu Hao.
The group’s members
The campaign has been active for over a month. Currently, the group is organizing an event called “Walking Under the Rainbow” as part of the communication campaign to raise funds for victims of Agent Orange at the Center for Care and Rehabilitation of Agent Orange/Dioxin Victims in Hanoi – Yen Bai, Ba Vi. This is the first center in Vietnam established under a state management model, currently caring for and nurturing 125 victims suffering from the effects of Agent Orange/Dioxin. Among them, many patients face serious issues such as mental disorders, hyperactivity, abnormal behaviors, and paralysi.
In just two days of the event, the Orange Color group raised a total of 10 million VND. Continuing the values of love and solidarity of the nation, the students of FPT University aim to use the event “Walking Under the Rainbow” to sell corner-cut cards featuring national heroes and zinc flowers—products made by the very victims of Agent Orange. This effort seeks to further raise funds and create greater positive values for society, in line with what Mr. Hoang Nam Tien expressed: he wants FPT University students to be kind people who spread kindness to the community.
“Always keep learning, because the knowledge you gain is the foundation that helps you and contributes to changing the lives of many people.” This is what the student group shared, reflecting the mission of the entire team as they carry out this project.
