RMIT to host outdoor charity festival, Vy will perform and many others

Loreto Fest 2008 will feature famous Australian artists including Regurgitator, Rock ‘n’ Roll, The Bad Neighbors, and blues singer Mojo Webb.

Vietnamese singers, Ho Ngoc Ha and Vietnam Idol 2007 Phuong Vy, will also give performances.

Food, beverages and other picnic activities will be available at the event from 2 p.m. to 12 a.m.

Money raised from the festival will be used to support orphans and mentally disabled children at the Binh Minh School in Tan Phu District, and to help visually impaired and malnourished children in Can Gio District.

The event is organized by the Loreto Vietnam Australia Program (LVAP), a non-governmental organization founded in 1997 that has provided education projects for more than 6,000 underprivileged children.

Last year's Loreto Fest raised US$55,000 for charities.

The RMIT International University Vietnam is located at 702 Nguyen Van Linh Street, District 7.
