In the chilly winter air, the atmosphere in Ha Giang 2 Ward, Tuyen Quang Province becomes unexpectedly warm, kindled by the fire of compassion. From early morning, families and community groups gather together, washing leaves, rinsing rice, and preparing 1,000 vividly green banh chung gu. These are not merely traditional cakes - they are bundles of love and hope sent to the people of the Central and Central Highlands regions who are struggling to overcome the aftermath of historic flooding.

Alongside the cakes, the yard is filled with boxes of heartfelt donations: 1.5 tons of clothing, 2 quintals of rice, and countless essential supplies (bread, water, instant noodles, medicine, etc.). Everything is neatly arranged, ready for departure. Encouraging smiles and eyes filled with concern for the disaster-stricken areas create an atmosphere both urgent and full of affection, marking the beginning of a meaningful journey of solidarity from the people of Tuyen Quang.
