The "Spring from Millions of Golden Hearts" program was organized to encourage underprivileged students who cannot return to their homeland to celebrate Tet with their families, particularly those affected by the Covid-19 pandemic and recent natural disasters.
The program presented 2,000 Tet gifts to students at dormitories, boarding houses, and pupils in districts of Ho Chi Minh City.
The "Spring from Millions of Golden Hearts" program that was organized for the first time in 1999 has assisted 32,000 students over the last time.
During the Lunar New Year, in addition to the "Spring from a Million Golden Hearts" program, the Ho Chi Minh City Student Support Center has also coordinated with enterprises to provide seasonal jobs to students during the Tet holidays and offer free bus, train, and air tickets for needy people to return home for the Tet holiday.
