About the area: Virongheo, a village in Dak Tang commune, is in an extremely difficult area, located in the northeast of Kon Plong district, about 70km from Kon Tum province center. The area has a complicated topography, divided by many hills and slopes, the villages are scattered and evenly distributed. The poor village is completely isolated from the streets and has more than 100 households there. When the local people in the village get serious cold, stomachache, bleeding, injuries or any other sickness, it takes them 4-5 hours by motorbike to travel from village to the province center if they want to have medicine or get emergency first aid. They have to cross bumpy, foggy and slippery roads, forests, mountains and of course suffer rains, cold and heat. That is not to mention many families in the village do not have a motorbike to travel. They are a very poor area and really need help!

LOVE's note: The medicine cabinet is located in the Church where the young preacher, graduated from Da Nang University of Medicine, knows how to use these medicines and helps to distribute them to the people when they need it.

You can provide funds for the whole area with $180 - $220 or you can donate with fewer amounts, depending on your ability. Donations of $20, $30 or $50 add up
