The 2011 Spring Voluntary Campaign, run by the HCM City Students Association, will focus on helping the poor in 20 poor communes in the southern provinces of Long An, Ben Tre, Ba Ria-Vung Tau and Binh Phuoc.

Students will deliver 1,000 Tet gifts to poor people and disadvantaged children, make at least 30 books from old calendars for the visually impaired, and send 2,000 cards with Lunar New Year wishes to soldiers who are stationed at the borders and remote islands.

They will also donate 400 units of blood and visit Vietnamese Heroic Mothers and Families that Rendered Services to the Fatherland.

In addition, the association’s grassroots units will organize many other activities for migrant workers on the occasion of the (Tet) Lunar New Year Festival.
