Nước sạch Vĩnh Trụ, Hà NamMonday, July 8th, 2019Huyện Vĩnh Trụ, Hà Nam là một trong 4 địa điểm được khảo sát và tìm thấy nguồn nước nhiễm thủy ngân với độ đo 348 micro-gram mỗi lít, cao hơn mức chuẩn là 10 micro-gram. Nguồn nước nhiễm thủy ngân sẽ gây ra các hệ lụy như ung thư da, bướu, tiêu chảy. Trẻ sinh ra cũng bị tỷ lệ tử vong cao, bị các chứng ung thư, tim mạch, các rối loạn khác liên quan tới phát triển trí tuệ và trí nhớ. Tại những vùng trồng lúa giáp ranh sông Hồng như Chuyên Ngoại, thủy ngân sẽ len lỏi vào hoa màu, gây ô nhiễm cho người tiêu dùng. Úc đã tài trợ các dự án đo đạc, lọc nguồn nước sạch dựa trên Khung đánh giá chuẩn môi trường của Úc. Vào tháng 5, chị Đỗ Anh Thư / VNHelp tham gia cùng với các đoàn nước ngoài khác từ Mỹ, Thụy điển, Gia nã đại đi thăm một cơ sở lọc nước sạch. Mang nước sạch lại cho người dân để bảo vệ sức khỏe cho cả thế hệ sau cũng là một ưu tiên hàng đầu của VNHelp. Cảm ơn nước Úc. The Australian government funds several researches, measurements and setting up clean-water processing stations in the area. In May 2019, Thu Do/VNHelp along with other delegations from America, Sweden, Australia and Canada came to visit such a clean-water processing site. Bringing clean water to the disadvantages has always been one of the top priorities of VNHelp as we strive to project health of both current and future generations. Thank you, Australia. Clean Water to Ha Vinh communeFriday, February 8th, 201980% of diseases in Vietnam are caused by polluted water resource which causes cholera, typhoid, dysentery, malaria… Disease check-ups and treatments cost about $20 million USD, so prevention is a no-brainer. Thanks to Mrs. Mai Dolch’s support, 1592 people from 375 households in Ha Vinh commune, Ha Trung district, Thanh Hoa province start getting clean water flowing to their houses for the very first time. For folks like Tuan who had to borrow 50,000 VND (~$2000 USD) for disease treatments, this VNHelp clean water project shields him and 1591 others from financial disaster and secures a healthy future for their loved ones. San Jose Rotary ClubTuesday, October 2nd, 2018With a generous grant from the Rotary Club of San Jose, in October 2018 VNHelp purchased and installed 10 water treatment systems at 10 elementary schools in Nam Dinh Province targeting areas where water is contaminated and unsafe to drink. The clean water provided by the systems benefits 5,150 students, nearly 200 teachers and school staff during school days as it is safe to drink and free of water-borne diseases, and will help to improve overall health in the communities. Additionally, this project will reduce the financial burden for low-income parents who have to buy bottled water for their children every day, as well as the amount of discarded bottle wastes.
