According to the Delegation of the European Commission to Vietnam, the European Union has decided to give US$2.5 million to help Vietnam surmount the consequences of the storm. The funding is expected to be pumped through European non-governmental organisations in Vietnam.

Overseas Vietnamese in the US and Thailand have also contributed a total of US$683,500 to help the victims. 

According to an October 22 press release from the United States Embassy in Vietnam, the US government has decided to provide the “Save the Children” with US$150,000 to support relief efforts. The funding, dispatched through the US Agency for International Development (USAID)’s Office of Foreign Disaster Assistance (OFDA), has brought the US government’s financial support for typhoon victims in Vietnam this year to around US$750,000. 

The funding will allow Save the Children to deliver essential household and hygiene kits (blankets, water containers, kettles, cooking pots, mosquito nets and soap) to almost 35,000 people by the end of this week. The “Save the Children” will target US assistance to those most affected by the storm in the remote and marginalised highland communities of Da Krong district in Central Quang Tri province.
