In October of 2006,
Wellness Global Foundation’s Health Day occurred in the remote village of Cam
Duong, Vietnam. The day was sponsored WGF, as well as the Hospital Hung Vuong
and the local Red Cross. 12 doctors from Hospital Hung Vuong armed with large amounts
of medical equipment and medicine traveled by bus to the rural location in
order to provide primary medical care to remote villages.
Doctors from Ho Chi
Minh City volunteered their time to make the Health Day a success. With
assistance from the Red Cross, over 650 residents of small nearby villages were
able to attend the event. Because of the generosity of Wellness Global
Foundation's friends, antibiotics, prescription drugs, over the counter
medications, and vitamins were able to be purchased and distributors to the
attendees.
Health Day 2006
included an address by the head of the local Red Cross and was a great success
because it provided the opportunity for many in Vietnam without regular access
to healthcare to receive personal care and medications.
