The program was implemented from July 20 to September 19 to mobilize people and soldiers nationwide to join hands and contribute to support and cover medical examination and treatment costs, vocational training, house construction and repair, and gifts for poor and disadvantaged Agent Orange victims nationwide.

The chemical warfare conducted by the US in Vietnam exposed 4.8 million Vietnamese people, more than 3 million of whom were victims; many of whom suffered from serious illnesses, deformities, disabilities, and intellectual disabilities, and Agent Orange sequelae were passed on to the fourth generation, causing countless tragedies that many generations of Vietnamese had to endure.

At the ceremony, Senior Lieutenant General Nguyen Van Rinh, Chairman of the Vietnam Association of Victims of Agent Orange/Dioxin, said that organizing charity text messages is a practical and effective way, suitable for the psychological characteristics and financial capabilities of many classes and social groups in our country. The money collected from the text message program not only reflects the sentiment and responsibility of the social community towards victims of Agent Orange, but also makes millions of Vietnamese people and international friends better understand the Agent Orange disaster in Vietnam and the work to overcome the consequences of toxic chemicals used by the US during the war in Vietnam."
