Reconstruction Aid
Reconstruction Aid
The meeting received a report from the Vietnam Aid Appeal, a subcommittee of the C.O.V. Last year the appeal raised $10,500 which was sent to the British Medical Aid Committee in London. Medical supplies were purchased with the money and sent through Eastern Europe to the D.R.V., the P.R.G. areas of South Vietnam, and the areas controlled by the liberation forces in Laos and Combodia.
This year the Aid Appeal will join with the long-established New Zealand Medical Aid Committee in Auckland to launch a nationwide campaign for medical and reconstruction aid to Vietnam. This aid will go to the same areas as last year.
