OUR LATEST NEWS AND ANNOUNCEMENTS:

The Covid epidemic's situation is complicated in Da Nang, the number of infections is increasing rapidly in the community. In order to deal with this situation, the government has issued a strict lockdown and traffic restrictions across the city (effective from July 31, 2021 and became extremely strict with the updated directive on the afternoon of August 4).

Over here, there are more than a hundred checkpoints in Da Nang city and people are not allowed to leave the house without a proof of a valid reason for leaving home or travel permit that are issued from government facilities to special offices, companies or agencies. Those who go out without proving their necessary reasons will be fined.

According to this directive, L.O.V.E‘s office must also be closed suddenly from August 6 to August 13 and staff will work from home because our travel permit is also not available after the directive was updated on August 4. All meeting days and activities for Book and Uniform Distribution for 10^th grade and others in August will move to after the August 16, when having further instructions or checkpoints removed or lightened.

Due to the epidemic and social distancing with lockdowns, we are unable to distribute sponsorship at meeting locations in July. We had to break down the number of sponsored children and we gave out sponsorship, books, uniform, school supplies,.. and extra gifts  at the office to families from center areas at different time. Other families from remote areas were visited.
