The miracle of kindness

'Kindness does not require conditions, but only a heart that is always ready to help others'.

Báo Thanh niênBáo Thanh niên29/07/2025

That is the guiding principle of student Thach Ngoc Hai (born in 2002), majoring in Social Work, Dong Thap University, when he has traveled thousands of kilometers to bring to thousands of children in the highlands the miracle of kindness.

Grandmother's love nurtures compassion

Hai grew up in the loving arms of his grandmother when his parents divorced at a very young age. From a young age, Hai struggled with many different part-time jobs to be able to support his grandmother and pay for his education. The two of them lived in a small rented room and his grandmother was the first person to teach Hai the lesson of kindness, knowing how to share even when poor.

Because of empathy and understanding, Hai has participated in volunteer activities since his junior high school years and that is also the motivation for Hai to choose to study social work. That part-time job for Hai is an experience, training and maturity in life, work and study later. It is also those difficulties and hardships that have helped a poor student have perseverance, strength and love, sharing with the needy is multiplied every day.

Remembering those years, Hai could not help but be moved: "Those days of poverty helped me get used to an independent life, learn to save every penny, cherish the little things and gave me a heart that knows how to sympathize and share with everyone."

In the classroom, Ngoc Hai has many opportunities to access community volunteer activities, equality and fairness in human development in general and children in particular. Hai gradually realized that education , care and timely support are the driving forces to change the lives of children. That has urged student Thach Ngoc Hai to do something specifically for poor children, disabled children and children in especially difficult circumstances.

Bring love to share with poor children

And then the dream came true, "Project for you" was officially born on June 1, 2023. This is like a gift that I give to the children on International Children's Day.

At first, "Project for Children" simply meant giving children a notebook, a book, a meal, a scholarship, a friendly environment, a study corner, a cake, a lantern... But more than that, it was a ray of hope, a warm hug, and the right amount of care so that the children could develop comprehensively.

From a few members, "Project for Children" now has 14 members and more than 800 collaborators, more than 1,600 "charity ambassadors" nationwide and international students from Japan, Korea, Taiwan, Australia, China... accompanying to support and spread the project's activities.

For Hai, the "Project for Children" does not stop at giving gifts but also aims at a comprehensive development environment, clear educational goals, supporting nutrition, health, facilities, healthy and useful playgrounds for children. Many practical activities have been implemented such as: granting long-term scholarships, building reading rooms, libraries, boarding kitchens, repainting degraded facilities, milk donation campaigns for children, free cooking programs...

Nguyen Duong Ngoc Tram - a student at Dong Thap University, a member of "Project for Me" shared, "Mr. Hai is very enthusiastic, dedicated and has a high sense of responsibility, always sociable and maintains a positive attitude. Through activities with Mr. Hai, I learned the spirit of dedication, professionalism, perseverance, no matter how difficult or hard it is, I still do not give up".

Hai’s days mainly revolve around studying and social work activities. When he is not in school, Hai spends his time planning projects, contacting philanthropists, writing reports or editing media articles. Each trip and each story from children in the highlands motivates Hai to live a better life every day. For Hai, social work is not just a job, but a part of life, a place for Hai to express his feelings and find meaning in his journey of growing up.

Develop "Project for Children" professionally

During a program in the highlands for children, Hai saw a child holding a box of fried chicken without eating it. Hai approached and asked, and the child said: "I'm saving it to bring home for my younger sibling." At that moment, Hai was stunned. A small gift, but for the children, it was such a special thing. And the child knew that thinking about his younger sibling at home would make him grow up to be responsible and know how to share. It was that small thing that Hai could never forget, and realized that what he was doing was very necessary and had to continue.

Perhaps it was that kindness and magic that connected many volunteers, students, and even Vietnamese beauty queens and runners-up to participate.

The eyes and smiles of children when given love are priceless gifts that Hai received during his volunteer journey. The steps through thousands of kilometers and wading streams, crossing forests, overcoming thousands of thorns have trained Ngoc Hai to be persistent, modest and have the spirit to overcome difficulties. The greatest thing that Hai received was finding the meaning of life for himself. Hai feels that he does not only live for himself, but can also contribute to bringing good things to others.

Confiding in us, Ngoc Hai said that no matter who you are, rich or poor, old or young, you can spread kindness, love and sharing in life. Through that, create a network to spread good things in life, aiming to build a kind and compassionate community.

Talking about the volunteer activities of young people today, Hai expressed his appreciation that more and more young people are calling for and organizing volunteer programs in their localities. This shows that the spirit of charity among young people is increasingly spreading, and that is a positive signal for the future.

In the coming time, Thach Ngoc Hai plans to develop "Project for Children" professionally, expand its operations to many provinces and cities across the country, strengthen long-term support models; develop a team of volunteers; build a network of connections with businesses, social organizations and schools, in order to mobilize resources and coordinate the implementation of in-depth activities.
