The volunteers provide cleaning services to registered houses, and contribute the money they earn from housework (VND45,000 per hour) to help children and older people living in difficult circumstances to have a happier Tet holiday.

As part of the community - based programmes for Tet organised by the Consulate in collaboration with VASS Assurance Corporation, the programme kicked off on January 15 and will run until February 8.
