Hoang Ha, the driving force behind the organizing board, shared that this annual celebration is a collaborative effort between the Vietnamese International Women’s Federation in the UK, Park Pharmacy, and the esteemed Love Collection Ao Dai brand. Together, they aim to celebrate and spread the beauty of Vietnamese culture and the spirit of its community in their adopted home.
The event’s success, according to Ha, is a testament to the warm reception and interest shown by local authorities and residents in Vietnamese culture. It also reflects the growing reputation and influence of the Vietnamese community within the UK, a source of great pride for all involved.
All funds raised during the program were donated to the Vietnamese Women and Children Association in the UK.
