Accordingly, many practical activities will be implemented by nine volunteer teams, including “Free Health Check for Covid-19 Recovered Patients”, “Community Digital Transformation”; “Build, Repair and Upgrade Toilets at Disadvantaged Schools Nationwide” and “Introducing Ethnic Musical Instruments to Hanoi’s High Schools Students”.

Speaking at the launching ceremony held in the capital city on June 3, Secretary of Hanoi Youth Union Chu Hong Minh said that the 2022 Summer Youth Volunteer Campaign, which is held from June to August yearly is always spiritedly joined by a large number of young people.

“Summer volunteer campaign is an opportunity for students to devote their youth and enthusiasm to the community,” she said.

“The capital city's youth will strive to fulfill the assigned task with the motto of “Safe- Widespread - Practical - Effective and Flexible,” she pledged.

In the context that the whole society is adjusting to the new normal, Minh said that the capital's youth need to step up activities to support social security, help locals to restore their lives, production and business after the Covid-19 pandemic.

According to Minh, this year's voluntary plan will focus on implementing one program and four campaigns,  which are “Assistance for Candidates in National High School Exams”, “Green Summer”, “Red Phoenix Flower”, “Pink Vacation” and “Young Soldiers Join Social Voluntary Work”.
