<div>On September 7, 2024 a devastating typhoon swept through Vietnam - wreaking havoc on its communities. Crushing flash floods made its way through the remote mountainous districts of Bắc Hà, Simacai, and Bảo Yên in the Lào Cai province. These areas are deeply occupied by Hmong and other communities who farm, go to school, live, and cultivate the land.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Casualties rise to 246 with many dead, missing, or injured as villages and communities struggle to rescue their family members and salvage whatever of their homes they have left. Lào Cai province reports the highest typhoon casualties in the country. Over 9,000 homes have been destroyed. Over 97 highland villages of Lào Cai are isolated by floods, all relief efforts are a race against time.

<div>These are just some of the heartbreaking stories shared by local media and Hnub Tsawb, a direct contact who grew up in Lào Cai province. Please help join me in fundraising for the province and its grieving people of Lào Cai.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>These funds will be gathered by me, and sent to Hnub Tsawb directly by Remitly. Funds will be stretched as far as possible for immediate relief such as food, water, shelter, warm clothing, medical operations, funeral funds and repair.
