| For them, the corner of the porch is their bed, and the blankets and mats are makeshift tarpaulins or plastic sheets hastily stretched out to protect them from rain and wind. |
 |
| A group of young people from the "Lighting Up Hope" Club, with the help of a benefactor, donated 10 sleeping bags to homeless elderly people living in makeshift tents and shelters in Vinh City. In the photo, club members visit Mrs. Ha, a beggar living in a temporary shack near Cua Tien Bridge. |
 |
| Volunteers went down to the fishing village near Cua Tien Bridge to distribute sleeping bags to elderly people living alone. |
 |
| According to Mr. Nguyen Minh Tuan, head of the "Lighting Up Hope" Club, through the club's charitable activities and awareness of the difficult circumstances of many people, the club often organizes activities to help and support, especially the elderly in Vinh City, every winter. With over 1,000 members and volunteers, the club has repeatedly organized free meal distributions, provided blankets and clothing, and cooked porridge on a volunteer basis, helping many people in need. |
 |
| Besides giving away sleeping bags, the volunteers also provided late-night meals to each elderly man and woman, hoping to help them get through the cold winter nights. |
 |
| The genuine kindness of these young people touched the hearts of many homeless individuals. |
 |
| Ms. Huong, who collects scrap metal near Quang Trung market during the day and sleeps on the sidewalks near the City Gate at night, couldn't hold back her tears when young people gave her a warm sleeping bag. These humane gestures, though small, partly prove that the warmth of human kindness still exists in a society that seems to be swept away by the hurried pace of life. |
