"For a victorious Vietnam" is a painting and literary composition contest for children with cancer, serious illnesses, Agent Orange, disabilities, autistic children and orphans, launched last August.
The 500 fundraising works were selected by a panel of experts from over 2,200 entries by over 1,000 children from 45 provinces and cities across the country. Each child, through their drawings, told special stories about humanity, kindness, conveying messages of love, optimism, and the will to rise up during the days when the whole country was struggling to fight the pandemic.

The works are available for sale online on the official website of the "For a Vietnam Victory" contest with prices of 500,000 VND, 5 million VND and 10 million VND. Interested readers can choose the paintings and pay through the Vlight portal. All proceeds will be transferred to the Sun of Hope program and the Hope Fund to support cancer patients and disadvantaged children in difficult circumstances across the country.
The representative of the Organizing Committee said that the paintings of children with cancer and disadvantaged children have contributed to bringing the voices of children further, reminding society not to forget or waste their talents, dreams and strong desire to live. Through the sale of paintings to raise funds, the Organizing Committee hopes to receive the companionship and sharing of the community to brighten the future of disadvantaged children.
