Following a public appeal to support residents severely affected by recent floods in central Vietnam's Nghe An Province, Dantri/Dtinews Newspaper has received VND 501,876,156 (approximately USD 19,840) in donations from readers nationwide as of 10pm on July 30.
Typhoon Wipha and its aftermath, from July 21 to 23, caused widespread devastation in Nghe An, leaving four people dead and four others injured.
More than 425 homes were completely destroyed, buried or swept away. Over 7,000 others were damaged, while transportation infrastructure and public facilities suffered extensive damage.

According to the Nghe An People's Committee, initial estimates place total economic losses from the storm at VND 3.45 trillion (approximately USD 136.36 million), nearly seven times higher than the province’s total natural disaster losses in all of 2024, which stood at VND 485 billion (approximately USD 19.16 million).
Seven days after the disaster, many villages remain isolated, with numerous families unable to return home and lacking the means to rebuild their lives.

In response to the emergency, Dantri Editor-in-Chief Pham Tuan Anh approved an immediate allocation of VND 320 million (approximately USD 12,640) from the newspaper’s Humanitarian Fund to assist 63 households whose homes were completely destroyed and one family who lost a loved one. Each affected household received VND 5 million (approximately USD 200) in emergency relief.
On July 26, while the border commune of Nhon Mai remained cut off, Dantri Deputy Editor-in-Chief Nguyen Xuan Toan led a delegation to deliver aid directly to affected residents, offering both material support and words of encouragement.

In addition to the VND 320 million in cash aid, the delegation also distributed three quintals of rice, 30 boxes of instant noodles and 47 crates of clean drinking water, all donated by readers, to local authorities for timely distribution to residents.
Pham Tuan Anh reaffirmed that all reader donations would be transferred promptly to local authorities and flood-hit communities in Nghe An.
He also called for continued solidarity and generosity from readers and philanthropists to help affected families purchase essential goods and production tools, overcome difficulties and return to a stable life.
