People are also more secure when traveling on the road, the risk of accidents has been significantly reduced.

Also in Luong Minh commune, the joy from the youth volunteer projects was clearly spread in Cham Puong village, when 4 orphaned sisters: Luong Thi Thao (born in 2008), Luong Cang Tuong (born in 2009), Luong Thanh Nong (born in 2011) and Luong An Do (born in 2013) were supported by the "blue shirt" brothers and sisters with 120 million VND to build a "Roof of Gratitude".

Present early at the program, Ms. Nguyen Thi Nguyet (born in 1954) said that for many years, her blood pressure had not been stable, however, for many reasons she had not been able to get examined. Therefore, when she heard the announcement that the District Youth Union and the "Young Doctors" Club would organize free examinations and medicine, she registered to participate.

That is one of the outstanding results of the "Pink Vacation" Volunteer Campaign of Nghe An youth.
