A photo exhibition featuring life of single disabled women will be open from September 20-21 in Hanoi, with all proceeds going to help the plight of the exhibit's subjects.
The two day exhibition will be held at the Centre for Women and Development, at 20 Thuy Khue Street, Hanoi. It is entitled ‘Xuong rong van no hoa’, or ‘A cactus also blossoms’. The show bares the same name as a project aiming to provide support to disabled single women and their children.
This will be the first event in a series by the project organisers, the Action Centre for Community Development, and sponsored by the Vietnam Bank for Social Policies and the British Council.
The photos, which were taken by both professional and amateur photographers, depict the lives of disabled single women in Hanoi.
According to the organisers, they will set up a fund that will be used to provide support for these women.
