Nearly nine years of operations in Việt Nam, Hanwha Life Việt Nam has demonstrated its commitment to making sustained positive contributions to the local community through various initiatives.

Hanwha Life Việt Nam in collaboration with the Sponsoring Association for Poor Patients in HCM City on Wednesday (February 28) signed a co-operation agreement for a free healthcare card donation project that aims to improve living conditions for the poor in Nghệ An, Cà Mau, Kon Tum, and Lâm Đồng provinces.

The VNĐ 1.4 billion (US$61,500) programme will donate a total of 8,149 health insurance cards to people in the four provinces.

At the signing ceremony, more than 4,500 health insurance cards were given to disadvantaged households in the central province of Nghệ An.

Hanwha Life Việt Nam has been implementing the project for five consecutive years since 2014.
