B.B.T., 2 months old, was born into a Dao ethnic minority family living in difficult conditions in Ha Giang province. Her parents are farmers with unstable incomes and are raising three young children. When B.B.T. was diagnosed with a ventricular septal defect and patent ductus arteriosus, along with severe malnutrition, doctors at E Hospital in Hanoi recommended emergency heart surgery to provide timely intervention.

The cost of treatment was far beyond what the family could afford. However, thanks to the community's support and the kindness of our sponsors, the surgery was successfully carried out. Baby T. has since recovered well and was recently discharged in stable condition.

The estimated total funding for this surgery is to be over 47 million VND, including:

- 34 million VND sponsored by Tetra Pak Vietnam

- 13 million VND raised through the TH Group's Happiness Survey 2025. For every completed survey, 12,000 VND was donated to fund heart surgeries for underprivileged children.

Previously, a total of 60 million VND had been raised through the Happiness Survey 2025, of which 47 million VND was used to support surgery fees for baby C.T.M. Baby B.B.T. is the next child to receive support from this meaningful initiative.

This wonderful outcome would not have been possible without the dedication and skill of the medical team at E Hospital in Hanoi and the donors' compassion.

We would like to extend heartfelt thanks to Tetra Pak Vietnam and the staff of TH Group for spreading love and hope and healing one more tiny heart.

With the care and compassion of the community, For Vietnamese Stature Foundation (VSF) believes that T. will grow up healthy and strong, be able to go to school, and have a joyful childhood.
