This activity contributes to bringing hundreds of textbooks to poor students before the new school year.
The loving bookshelves
Since early July, on weekday afternoons, students from the Hoa Phuong Do volunteer team of Hoang Hoa Tham High School (An Hai Ward) have been present at the school to receive books for the “Love Bookshelf” activity. This activity has been taking place for many years with the desire to donate small bookcases to students in disadvantaged areas.
Having just completed the 2025 high school graduation exam, Pham Van Ngoc Tan, a 12th grade student at Hoang Hoa Tham High School, brought to school a large box of recently completed textbooks, reference books of all kinds, and notebooks he had written.
Upon receiving the call from the volunteer team in the school's associations and groups, Tan selected books that were still in good condition and arranged them separately to donate to students in disadvantaged areas, hoping to help them have enough books for the next school year.
Nguyen Do Bao Tram, Captain of the Hoa Phuong Do Volunteer Team, Hoang Hoa Tham High School, said that every summer, the volunteer team organizes to receive donated books from students. These are new curriculum textbooks, life skills books, seeds of the soul, books about history, ethnicity, famous people, Uncle Ho, comics, fables, fairy tales, etc.
After that, the team members divided into groups of textbooks, reference books, children's books, newspapers, notebooks, school bags, and school supplies. The books that were still in good condition were sorted into complete sets, and the books that could not be reused were sold as scrap and the proceeds were used to buy school supplies to give away.
“In addition to textbooks, the volunteer team collects books and stories and divides them into small bookcases of 70-100 books to send to schools. Last year, the team sent 4 loving bookcases to schools in Thanh Hoa, Nam Tra My, Tay Giang (former Quang Nam ) and Tho Quang (Son Tra ward)... This year, the volunteer team will continue to collect books until August,” Tram shared.
Give books, send hope
Ms. Le Thi Phuong, teacher in charge of the Red Flamboyant Volunteer Team, Hoang Hoa Tham High School, said that every year after collecting and sorting books, by the end of August, the school's union (old), youth union and volunteer team will coordinate to organize a trip to donate books to a specifically selected school.
In addition to the donated books, from various funding sources from associations and organizations in the school, the group will donate books, backpacks, pens, calculators, clothes, etc. to students at those schools.
On this occasion, members of the Youth Union of Nguyen Van Thoai High School (Ngu Hanh Son Ward) also collected books, stories, and school supplies from students in the school to give to children in the highlands.
Mr. Le Manh Tan, Vice Principal of Nguyen Van Thoai High School, informed that up to now, the school has received more than 700 textbooks (70-80 sets of books and stories of various types). After being collected, the books are classified and carefully selected to filter out books suitable for the students' ages. To increase the meaning of the activity, the school is having volunteers and union members package each set of books and write handwritten letters to accompany them.
Mr. Tan said that in addition to receiving books, the school also mobilized clothes, school supplies, and especially organized book cafes to raise funds. The money collected will be used to buy school supplies and build study corners for students.
“The school is contacting and planning to make small bookshelves, then filling the shelves with books, stories and school supplies to give to disadvantaged students or placing small bookshelves in dormitories of boarding schools in mountainous areas,” Mr. Tan shared.
Over many years of implementation, the loving bookshelf activities of Hoang Hoa Tham High School and Nguyen Van Thoai High School have donated hundreds of sets of used textbooks, reference books, school supplies, handheld calculators, notebooks, school bags, backpacks, etc. to students in mountainous areas in Quang Nam (old) such as Vo Chi Cong High School, Nam Tra My High School, Tra Vinh Primary and Secondary Boarding School for Ethnic Minorities, Nguyen Van Troi Primary and Secondary School, etc.
Through many forms of movement, students in the school are sharing together, lighting up the dreams of children in the highlands to improve their learning conditions, while spreading to students the message of green living and always being ready to share.
