Charity art performance to support disabled people in Vietnam   
Nhan Dan, April1: The seventh charity art performance entitled 'One Heart - One World' will be held at the Hanoi Friendship Palace on April 11, announced the Vietnam Association in Support of Disabled People and Orphans in a press conference yesterday.

The third National Conference on honoring outstanding disabled people, orphans and supporters will take place on April 12.

The two events which are jointly organised by the Ministry of Labour, Invalids and Social Affairs and the Vietnam Association in Support of Disabled People and Orphans in co-ordination with the Vietnam Television and Media Max joint stock company are in anticipation of the Vietnam Day of Persons with Disabilities, April 18.

After six times of organizing it, the 'One Heart - One World' programme has become an information channel which helps the community get closer to the work of supporting people with disabilities and orphans. The programme is also aimed at calling on sectors, organisations and individuals to join hands to help improve the quality of life for orphans and disabled people.

The Association in Support of Disabled People and Orphans has set a target to provide vocational training for 1,500 disabled people and orphans in 2010.

It will also provide cataract surgeries for 2,500 poor blind people and rehabilitation treatment for 500 disabled people.
Furthermore, the association plans to provide 5,000 wheelchairs for disabled people, 1,500 bicycles and 2,500 scholarships for orphans in 10-15 communes.
