US student volunteers to build charity houses in central Vietnam
VOV.VN - A group of 16 US student volunteers have planned to build six charity houses for poor and disadvantaged households in Quang Ngai, a province in central Vietnam.
The young US volunteers are staying in Quang Ngai for the Summer Youth Volunteer Campaign 2023 lasting from June 30 to July 19.
They will help build three charity houses in Tinh Khe commune of Quang ngai city, and three other similar houses in Binh Thanh commune of Binh Son district.
During their stay, they will take part in exchanges with local youth and visit major tourist destinations and historical vestige sites in Quang Ngai and neighbouring localities.
They will then take part in the Friendship Night, a cultural exchange programme among students of Vietnam, Laos and the US in Quang Ngai province.
The 2023 summer exchange and volunteer programme gives the US student volunteers and young people of Quang Ngai province to learn about the distinctive cultures of both Vietnam and the US, as well as of Quang Ngai in particular.
It is expected to promote friendship and mutual understanding between the US students and local young people.
