Female student opens Tet stall to raise money for charity

The idea of ​​opening a booth was nurtured from the fundraising campaign to build the "Warm Winter Fund" launched by the Youth Union of Nghe An Pedagogical College. A group of young people who are outstanding Youth Union and Association officials stood up to call for and mobilize female students to volunteer to participate in the small business project.

With the aim of giving most of the profits from selling Nghe An specialties to teachers, students and people in the surrounding area for the "Warm Winter Fund", the group chose the time near Lunar New Year to implement their project.

Talking to us, the leader of the female group, Pham Thi Thuy Linh - a third-year student of the Preschool Department, said: "At school, students come from all over the country, each place has famous specialties such as: Anh Son sticky rice cake, Do Luong rice paper, Nam Dan soy sauce, Thanh Chuong pickled vegetables, Ky Son taro... Therefore, we have built this business project."

Determining the criteria of the booth as “high quality Nghe An products, student prices”, the volunteers called on students to focus on introducing their hometown specialties with the requirement of “getting from the source, shocking prices”. After nearly 2 weeks of calling, dozens of popular Tet food items have gathered at this charity booth.

In addition, female volunteers also sell popular "snack" items among students such as: mixed fruit, fried sausages, soda...

The booth was created by the school leaders to open right next to the school gate for 5 consecutive days before the Tet holiday (from February 5-9, 2018) and attracted the attention and support of many lecturers, students of Nghe An College of Education and surrounding people.
