The event, co-hosted by Jazz Bond Association, Orange Dihoxyn and Orange Fleurs d’espoir, involved both Vietnamese and French amateur composers and singers, who performed soulfully for Vietnam and its dioxin victims.
Vu Thi Xuan Phuong, President of Orange Fleurs d’espoir, said this is one of many charitable activities held annually in France to help the handicapped in Vietnam’s Ninh Binh and Quang Tri provinces and Ho Chi Minh city.
All proceeds from ticket sales will be donated to Vietnam’s dioxin victims.
A project to build an ecological treatment camp in Ninh Binh province for mentally retarded children was introduced during the concert.
A week of international unity with Vietnamese children suffering from the effects of Agent Orange will take place in France from November 13-21.
