Divided into nine teams, the volunteers will popularize laws among the public, provide local farmers with knowledge about agriculture, forestry and fishery, improve water and power systems, repair and build facilities, provide health care and organize cultural and sport events, among others.

They will present 500 sets of gifts to social policy beneficiaries, heroic Vietnamese mothers, workers and families in difficult circumstances, as well as officers and soldiers working in border and island areas.

The volunteers are expected to mobilize the donation of at least 2,000 units of blood during the campaign.

In that spirit, a blood donation drive was held right after the launching ceremony of the campaign.
