"Wheelchairs of Love" Donation Program


Donation of “Wheelchairs of Love”, as part of the public health care program, is one of the key activities to be carried out by Lawrence S. Ting Memorial Fund in 2009. The public health care program is to commemorate Mr. Tsien Peng Lun - late Chairman of CT&D Group and Phu My Hung JV Corporation. Mr. Tsien (and Mr Lawrence S. Ting), when they were still alive, led CT&D Group, Phu My Hung JV Corporation and its affiliated companies to make a lot of contributions to many charity activities in Vietnam.
