Generali supports orphans impacted by pandemic before Lunar New Year

Volunteers from Generali Vietnam and the NFVC organised the charity trip to deliver the gifts to 500 underprivileged and orphaned children in Long An, An Giang, and Ho Chi Minh City.

Funding for the programme came from the company’s direct contribution as well as the donations of hundreds of Generali Vietnam’s staff and agents via a wide range of creative and engaging fundraising activities, served by the company’s executive management team.

Generali’s dedicated volunteers also handwrote and enclosed 500 personal messages in the lucky money packets to send Lunar New Year wishes and lots of love and encouragement to the children.

“I am deeply touched as our Lunar New Year programme is always wholeheartedly supported by Generali’s staff and agents,” said Tina Nguyen, CEO at Generali Vietnam. The Tomorrow for our Children campaign this year is especially meaningful as it aims to share and ease the pain of loss with underprivileged children who were severely impacted by the pandemic. We hope that our gifts and acts of kindness will be a source of encouragement, motivating the children to live a healthy, happy, and optimistic life.”

Participating in the trips to the southwestern provinces, Le Tuyet Mai, deputy director of the NFVC shared, “Children are one of the most vulnerable groups. Therefore, we greatly appreciate the efforts to protect and support them with our partners and businesses, including Generali Vietnam. Generali has always been dedicated, innovative, and very quick in implementing their community programmes to provide practical support to the beneficiaries.”

In 2021, Generali pledged $700,000 for the community’s COVID-19 emergency responses, stepping up the digitalisation of its flagship community education programme Sinh Con, Sinh Cha, implemented online and offline during the pandemic.

Generali has recently also pledged over $1.13 million to the Integrated Early Childhood Development Holistic Parenting project jointly organised by UNICEF, The Ministry of Labour, Invalids and Social Affairs (MoLISA), The Human Safety Net, Generali Vietnam, and Vietnam Chamber of Commerce and Industry.

Generali Vietnam has recently received organisational and individual commendations from the MoLISA Minister in recognition of its outstanding contributions to the community’s COVID-19 emergency responses as well as Vietnamese children’s well-being and protection in 2021. Prior to that, Generali was also awarded the Saigon Times CSR 2021 certification.
