On October 27th, 2018, FIT Group and its member companies continued to cooperate with MT volunteer group to organize medical examination and treatment for 1000 people in Binh Phu commune, Tan Dong district, Dong Thap province.

Therefore, the program providing free medical examination and treatment is always appreciated by FIT’s Board of Directors in order to contribute to the improvement of health care condition as well as the living of the poor people. To fullfill the mission “The good leaves cover the worn-out leaves – Spreading Love”, on October 27th, 2018, FIT and MT volunteer group continued to choose Binh Phu commune – a impoverished commune seriously affected by the flood season of Dong Thap province as the next stop to organize the program “Medical examination, medicine and gift distribution” for about 1000 people living here.
