The Provincial Red Cross has organized "The Humanitarian Market” in response to the Action Month for the victim of Agent Orange in 2020 in Hoa Binh city and are giving gifts to the families in difficult circumstances in the area with a total value of over 100 million VND.

The awareness of Party committees at all levels towards the Red Cross and the humanitarian work has had a positive change. The state management over humanitarian activities has been strengthened. The Red Cross’ network has been strengthened and developed, and it has been operating increasingly effectively.

The different levels of the Red Cross have actively renewed the content and modes of operation, towards practicality, efficiency, strong grassroots and being consistent with the characteristics of the province. In particular, they have actively coordinated with other departments, agencies, unions and organizations to implement the programs, the projects and the campaigns associated with the implementation of Directive No. 05-CT/TW. In particular, they have effectively deployed the following campaigns and movements "Each organization and individual associates with a humanitarian address”, "Tet for the poor and the victims of Agent Orange victims”, "Blood donation volunteering”, "the Bank of Cows” and so on. The spirit of mutual love, "the good leaves protect the tattered ones” has been strongly spreading, practically sharing difficulties and tribulations with the people in need, affirming defining the humanistic and good nature of Vietnamese people.
