Of the total, the Netherlands Red Cross donated 200,000 EUR; the Swiss Red Cross, US$80,000; the German Red Cross, 66,150 EUR; the Australian Red Cross AUD64,877; the Finland Red Cross, EUR50,000, while the US Red Cross and the US Agency for International Development (USAID) each provided US$50,000.

Fund-raising activities to help the flood-hit victims are still being carried out in many of these countries.
The Vietnam Red Cross received more than US$48,200 from Philip Morris Vietnam to provide 2,000 relief packages to help the worst-hit families. It has provided approximately US$242,000 in cash and is planning to provide more than 2,000 tonnes of rice, 500 tonnes of rice seeds, 680 tonnes of fertilizer and 200 cattle to the provinces most affected by the disaster.

The floods, triggered by prolonged rains across northern and central Vietnam earlier this month, killed 82 people and destroyed 180,400 houses and 245,000 ha of winter crops. The total damage is estimated to be more than US$360 million.
