The funding was mobilized from contributions from organizations, individuals and philanthropists in the area, in order to share some of the difficulties, and at the same time encourage Ms. Tinh to overcome the treatment phase and soon stabilize her health and life.

Previously, on March 29, 2026, while doing garbage collection work in the ward, Ms. Tinh discovered two students had their motorbikes broken by a large tree branch due to a storm, trapped on the side of the road. In a dangerous situation, she did not hesitate to rush forward, trying to pull the tree branch out to rescue the children.

However, during the rescue process, she was unfortunately hit by another branch that suddenly broke and fell, crushing her. The incident caused her to be seriously injured in the face, abdomen and pelvis, and had to be transferred to a central hospital for treatment.
