On September 30th the 18th BBGV HCMC Charity Fun Run, organized by the British Business Group Vietnam (BBGV) took place in Phu My Hung District 7. This year, the event attracted around 11,500 participants and raised approximately VND 1 billion which will be allocated to various charities working across Vietnam to help support people in need.
