HCM CITY — A special fashion auction event will be held virtually tomorrow to raise funds for frontline doctors and COVID-19 treatment hospitals in southern provinces.
The event called “Từ Trái Tim Tới Trái Tim – Từ Thời Trang Thành Hơi Thở” (From Heart to Heart – From Fashion to Breath) is organised by the Việt Nam International Fashion Week (VIFW).
Lê Thị Quỳnh Trang, chairwoman of VIFW, said: “While we are lucky to be safe, many patients are fighting for their lives at COVID-19 treatment hospitals in HCM City, the country’s hotspot. We want to call on those who work in fashion industry to contribute to the fight against the pandemic through the auction of fashion designs and items.”
“All profits will be used to buy equipment and medical supplies for doctors and hospitals. We expect to receive support from donors at the event to send love to the south,” Trang said.
The auction will present fashion designs and items that have significant meanings for the donors.
