Vietnam attends winter charity fair 2013 in Moscow
(VOV) - The International Women’s club of Moscow organised a charity fair in the Russian capital, on November 30, to raise money for the elderly, vulnerable and underprivileged.

A Vietnamese pavilion selling authentic regional dishes, spring rolls and sticky rice attracted swathes of visitors, interested in Vietnam’s rich culture and unique culinary delights.

Local women from the Vietnamese embassy delivered an emotive performance of “Vietnam-My homeland” receiving huge applause from audiences.

Performing art groups from Indonesia, Spain, Russia and the Ukraine drew large crowds with their fantastic and colourful shows.
All the money raised will be donated to the club’s charity fund. Last year the fair made over US$200 000 and was able to support twenty charity projects.

The fair has also contributed to the introduction and acceptance of cultural diversity between nations, whilst at the same helping and supporting the poor.
