Kindness is a dignity, a precious tradition of Vietnamese people. In times of difficulty and tribulation, love, compassion, and sharing are revealed more clearly and deeply than ever before. The arms extending the love and sharing have created a great strength of solidarity, an important factor in helping us overcome difficulties…
For thousands of generations, our nation has had a precious tradition of "love others as much as yourself". Nowadays, humanitarian and charitable activities have become regular and continuous activities that are always implemented by the Party, State, mass organizations and the whole society. In each specific period and milestone, the community's love for people is always shown and spread. It is remembered that since the outbreak of the Covid-19 pandemic, rice ATMs, gifts in cash or necessities, medical supplies, free meals, "zero dong” market-days... have appeared more and more. There were many doctors, nurses, and volunteer forces who are not afraid of difficulties, danger, ready to rush into the "hot spot” of the pandemic so that people could return to normal life soon. In the crisis of the pandemic, the fine virtues of our nation were upheld and shined strongly once again. Then how many times, the spirit of "mutual love, mutual affection" has always shone when people here and there are affected by natural disasters, storms, floods...
Kindness and voluntary spirit are always present at anytime, everywhere. In hardships, the nation and compatriots’ spirit of caring and sharing in all regions of the country shines even brighter. Voluntary and humanitarian activities are not the responsibility of the State or of an organization, community or individual, but the common responsibility of the whole society. Every citizen, every organization, has the right to participate and has the responsibility to contribute to the common cause in order to shine brighter the kindness and voluntary spirit. Arousing and spreading the spirit of "mutual love and affection" among people from all strata, functional agencies and local authorities need to further accompany, connect charitable organizations and donors, make relentless efforts in connecting and spreading love for people, joining hands with the community to bring better things to life so that "no one is left behind".
