Canadians plans auction to help Agent Orange victims
Sun, 26/07/2009
The Canadian Consulate General in HCMC will auction a unique bottle of malt whisky from Glenora, Canada on March 3 and give the proceeds to an Agent Orange child victim center.
The auction will be held at the Saigon Tower, 29 Le Duan Boulevard, District 1 at 8 pm. Currently, there are only 120 bottles of the kind of whisky all over the world.
The proceeds will go to Thien Phuoc Center which is bringing up handicapped children affected by Agent Orange/Dioxin.
The Canadian Consulate General raised VND55 million to help the center late last year.
In related news, the HCMC Society of Agent Orange/Dioxin Victims will be inaugurated on March 4.
