Free bread for the poor in Hanoi

VOV.VN - A cabinet offering free bread to the poor has appeared on Tran Nhan Tong Street in Hanoi over the last two months.


People in need coming here can have bread, condensed milk and water free of charge.


According to a resident in Tran Nhan Tong St, Mr. Nguyen Duc Tri, the free bread is offered by a student who has returned from the US and wanted to help the disadvantaged people.

Poor people, street vendors and shoeshiners all have a chance to enjoy the free bread.

A motorbike taxi driver, Pham Dinh Hoang from Thuong Tin district said the bread donation helps much because he often goes to work without breakfast to save money.
