Contributing significantly to the socio-economic development of Vietnam

Over the 27 years in Vietnam, P&G has improved the lives of hundreds of thousands of disadvantaged Vietnamese people through many long-term programs. Its focus is providing access to clean drinking water, disaster relief support, educational scholarships to students, financial aid and women empowerment to help them take care of their families and develop themselves.
In Vietnam, P&G is taking deliberate action to accelerate equality & inclusion for all, including Gender Equality and LGBTQ+.
