Beneficiary: Mental Hospital
Location: Binh Duong Province, Vietnam
Date: July 2015
At the General Hospital in Binh Duong, which is south east of Vietnam, mentally ill patients are cared for.
GGB funded project to feed 1352 patients chicken vegetable noodle soup for one day with the help of local volunteers. GGB's local Ambassador, Minh Quan, coordinated and lead the project.
Volunteers not only purchased food, cooked, fed 1352 patients, and shaved/cut patients' hair. Lack of continuous hygiene care, to prevent lice spread, hair cuts and head shaves are preferred.
Not all 1352 patients were fed at the same time, it was spread out during the day as most of them are in locked up areas.
Many thanks to local volunteers (Nhóm Thien Nguyen An Quang) and GGB's Ambassador Minh Quan who helped with the Binh Duong Project.
