Joining hands in environmental protection
The program of “For a civilized and modern Binh Duong” is seen as a great activity of provincial Agencies Bloc’s Youth Union. The objectives of the program are to uphold the volunteer role of the youth to work out “young works” for the community; raise Youth Union members’ awareness on environmental protection and build of a civilized and modern Binh Duong.
To achieve this great program, each Youth Union must have one practical deed, especially pay attention to environmental protection.

Houses of compassion for poor youth
As planned, there will be four houses of compassion worth VND25mln each for the local poor youths during the 2011 summer volunteer campaign. It is known that the total cost of these houses is funded by the bloc’s Youth Union members and donors.
According to Tuan Anh, head of the bloc’s Youth Union group N0.2, this support program will encourage needy youths to overcome immediate difficulties and step by step build a well-off life…
Upholding their volunteer spirit, youth volunteers will have significant activities for the sake of the community. The annual summer volunteer youth campaign is also a good environment to educate Youth Union members so that they know to live for everyone.
