On the 60th anniversary of War Invalids and Martyrs Day on July 27, 2007, Phu Thai Group Joint Stock Company will coordinate with Hanoi Youth Union, Vietnam Red Cross Society and the Red Cross Associations in five outlying districts to organise the “Free health check - drug presentation and gifts for the community health” programme in Hanoi’s five districts of Dong Anh, Gia Lam, Tu Liem, Soc Son and Thanh Tri. The beneficiaries are poor families of war invalids and martyrs.
The programme reflects the Vietnamese people’s spirit of gratitude and heart of mercy for the poor. This is also an active response of Phu Thai Group to the “Participating in the year of gratitude movement” launched by the Vietnam Fatherland Front in 2007.
Under the programme, Phu Thai Group presented 50 scholarships to 50 poor students with excellent study results in the five districts.
Set up in 1993, Phu Thai Group Joint Stock Company has become a leading consumer goods distributor in Vietnam. With more than 1,500 employees, Phu Thai has built up a leading wholesale network in Vietnam with nearly 100,000 outlets, including sub-distributors, wholesales agents, retailers, supermarkets and direct consumers like hotels, restaurants, working offices and consumers.
Apart from the business front, Phu Thai Group always has special sentiments for the community, contributing strength and mind to the overall development of the society. In recent years, Phu Thai actively took part in social and charity activities such as Flood relief for central provinces (2006), Donation of 5,000 noodle packs for Danang Students Association (2006), Funds for gratitude funds (2007) and “Free health check - drug presentation and gifts for the community health.”
With these activities, Phu Thai hopes to contribute to the values of society, such as humanitarian affection and gratitude of Vietnamese people toward those contributing and sacrificing for national liberation. At the same time, this is clearly reflected the philosophy of Phu Thai Group: “Committed to operating for the development of the group and the benefit of the society.”
