Katinat, a prominent business, has taken to their Fanpage to announce their plans to donate a portion of their revenue to support disaster relief efforts. The company expresses their desire to stand in solidarity with their fellow citizens who are enduring the brunt of the floods by pledging to donate 1,000 VND from every drink sold across their outlets from September 12 to September 30.
