Nhan said the recent flood and maritime environmental incidents in the central provinces have made the local life in the central provinces more difficult.
The prompt assistance of agencies, businesses and individuals is significant to help the victims surmount difficulties, he added.
He pledged the money will be delivered to localities as scheduled.
As of October 14, the VFF Central Committee received over 6 billion VND (270,000 USD) donated to support flood victims in Nghe An, Ha Tinh, Quang Binh, Quang Tri, and Thua Thien-Hue provinces.
On the same day, Vietnamese Ambassador to Russia Nguyen Thanh Son launched a drive to raise money for flood victims in central Vietnam.
