"While we are here in this nice atmosphere of Yen So Park, there are thousands of poor kids with heart defects who are in search of donation to give them a hope for a better life. We may have helped nearly 900 kids so far and I think we should double our effort so that we can help more of these kids. There is no nobler act than to help children especially those with heart defects," shared Anthony Tan - General Director of Gamuda Land Vietnam in the keynote speech.

Founded in 2006, The VinaCapital Foundation (VCF) aims to empower the children and youth of Vietnam, by providing opportunities for growth and improvement through health and education programs. The work of VCF touches the lives of millions of Vietnamese in 63 provinces every year.

Heartbeat Vietnam, a programme of VCF, has provided heart operations since 2006 for children across Vietnam, as well as helping to improve cardiac and pediatric care in Vietnam via a telemedicine training series, equipment donations, and support for province-level pediatric outreach centers./.
