On September 13, the association for solidarity of patriotic Buddhist monks in Kien Giang province’s Go Quao district presented 9,000 notebooks, 2,000 pens and 10 sets of new clothes to pupils from poor families in the district.
These notebooks, pens and new clothes have been presented to disadvantaged pupils from elementary and primary schools in communes of Dinh Hoa, Thuy Lieu and Long Thanh in the district.
Due to a gathering restriction for preventing the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic outbreak, the association has sent notebooks, pens and new clothes to these schools in order to hand over them to disadvantaged when the epidemic risk is over.
Earlier, on September 12, the Vietnam Buddhist Sangha (VBS)’s board for social charity in Kon Tum province organized a charity program to present gifts to pupils in remote areas near Khanh Son and Khanh Lam pagodas.
