In 2011, the association held a job fair, a football tournament and many other activities to strengthen solidarity and mutual assistance among Vietnamese students, while advertising Vietnam’s images to Japanese community.

In November, the association sponsored a music gala to raise funds for victims of the tsunami and earthquake in Japan on March 11.
