The Ho Chi Minh Communist Youth Union in Quang Ninh is mobilising 3,000 presents for children during the lunar New Year (Tet), in order to contribute to caring for disadvantaged and ethnic minority children and those in remote areas during Tet.

The activity also aims to raise awareness and responsibility among teenagers and people about caring for and educating teenagers and children.

Started since 2010, the activity has been carried out efficiently, with over 20,000 presents worth nearly VND2.5 billion given to disadvantaged children. The money has been mobilised from unions, agencies, domestic and foreign enterprises.

This year, 3,000 presents worth at least VND200,000 each are expected to be given to 1,476 children sponsored by the youth unions and 1,524 poor children in disadvantaged children and children of poor cadres and workers affected by natural disasters.

In addition, the union will organise cultural, art and sports activities for poor children to welcome Tet.
