Speaking at the event, Mr. Nguyen Thanh Tung, Head of the Events and Brand Development Department of Nguoi Lao Dong Newspaper, said that for many years, Nguoi Lao Dong Newspaper has carried out many social activities to support the community. With the "Spring Tree Lighting Up Compassion" program in Hoc Mon district, this is the second time Nguoi Lao Dong Newspaper has partnered with the newspaper.

Giving Tet gifts to people in difficult circumstances, the disabled and orphans in Hoc Mon area.

As one of the households receiving gifts, Mrs. Truong Thi Kim Tuyen (residing in Hoc Mon district) got up early to bring her two grandchildren to attend the program. Mrs. Tuyen emotionally said that her son passed away in 2022 due to heart disease and COVID-19, and her daughter-in-law then left, leaving her to take care of her two grandchildren. In the small house, the three grandmothers and grandchildren depend on each other and live off her small business.

"My grandchildren are very obedient. Every time they see me sad, they encourage me to try harder. They are the motivation for me to continue trying to live a better life. In such a situation, I am very happy to receive Tet gifts at the end of the year," said Ms. Tuyen emotionally.

Ms. Huynh Thi Xuan Mai, Vice Chairman of Hoc Mon District People's Committee, spoke at the program.
