Organ donation has been a humanitarian movement across the nation over the recent past. The deeds by donors and their families have inspired many people to register as future donors and embodying the profound message of giving the gift of life.
People sign up to be organ donors in Hoa Binh
city.
The first cornea donation in Hoa Binh province,
carried out in early December 2024, has captured the public attention across
social media and news outlets as a testament to human kindness. Vu Huu Lung, a
resident in Hoa Binh city’s Tan Thinh ward, decided to donate all of his
organs, including his corneas, to help blind patients and those in need of
organ transplants. Upon notification, medical staff from the Hanoi Eye Hospital
2 came to fulfill his wish.
Tran Thi Hoa, Chairwoman of the Hoa Binh city
Red Cross Society (RCS), said a 20-member communications club was launched in
April 2024 to raise public awareness of the significance of organ donation.
Last year, the Red Cross Society received 110 donation registrations.
The movement has gained momentum across
districts, with their RCSs establishing organ donation advocacy clubs and
expanding their networks. Club members themselves have registered as future
donors, helping spread the humanitarian message of the campaign.
Since 2019, the province’s RCS chapters have
processed over 300 donor registrations, with most coming from Hoa Binh city.
Looking ahead, the Chairman of the provincial RCS
Bui Quoc Viet said the organisation will continue implementing related
documents, improving communications methods outlined, and mobilising broader
support to increase donor registration rates.
Organ donation registration, available to individuals
aged 18 and above with full legal capacity, not only offers hope to patients
but also provides donors with priority healthcare benefits. Many successful
transplants have saved lives thanks to the generosity of organ donors.
Living green is a healthy, positive, and sustainable lifestyle that not only helps protect
the environment and quality of life but also conserves natural resources and ecosystems.
Among the many ways to embrace this lifestyle, reducing plastic consumption is one of the most impactful.
The women's unions at all levels in Kim Boi district have been making significant contributions to the movement of building cultural life in the local community.
The movement helps improve rural look and the spiritual and material lives of local residents.
The Hoa Binh provincial People’s Committee has issued an action plan to ensure food safety, promote processing, and develop the market for agricultural, forestry, and fishery products in 2025.
In recent years, the development of rural handicrafts has not only helped preserve and promote the traditional values but it has also created jobs and improved incomes for the local residents.
By harmoniously combining traditional medicine with modern medical practices, the Hoa Binh Traditional Medicine Hospital is strengthening its role in the province’s healthcare system.
