Campaign Commander Pham Le Minh Khang said that taking place from December 22, 2024 to January 28, 2025, Volunteer Spring 2025 has completed 14/15 targets set for the entire campaign. Notably, the planning, progress, and content of activities were implemented early.
The application of digital technology in campaign operations, especially the registration and management of volunteers, is a new feature this year. Most notably, more than 97,000 soldiers participated in the activities of this 17th campaign, an increase of 1.2 times compared to the 2024 campaign.
Some of the campaign's outstanding results include donating 16,325 banh chung and banh tet; organizing 22 teams to work at checkpoints and coordinate traffic in districts and Thu Duc City.
In particular, the entire campaign carried out 1,721 "9-1 Journeys" to find red addresses and traditional spaces associated with the student movement in Saigon - Gia Dinh - Ho Chi Minh City as well as visit and give gifts to the parents of the movement.
The information campaign command visited and presented gifts to 15 student dormitories, 103 cultural accommodation areas - worker boarding houses, implemented 15 "Journey of Faith" programs and three "Spring of Soldiers" programs. At the same time, it supported health examination, consultation, and free medicine for nearly 7,000 poor people, and presented Tet gifts to over 3,300 sick children and poor patients at hospitals.
Within the framework of the campaign, volunteers coordinated to repair 24 dilapidated houses, temporary houses, charity houses, gratitude houses, and friendship houses for children and people in difficult circumstances, poor and near-poor households in the city.
The only target of collecting data and restoring 107 portraits of heroic Vietnamese mothers and martyrs has not been completed yet. Explaining, Mr. Minh Khang said that he is currently implementing phase 2 of the project "Restoring portraits of heroic Vietnamese mothers and martyrs".
However, the biggest difficulty is that there is no more source of visual materials, most of which are only sketched through words and then asked relatives to identify, edit and complete the portrait.
Along with the summary of the 2025 Volunteer Spring, the Ho Chi Minh City Vietnam Student Association also organized a conference to exchange and inform the Party Committees of universities, colleges and intermediate schools for the second semester of the 2024-2025 school year. On this occasion, many collectives and individuals who actively participated in the 2025 Volunteer Spring campaign were commended and rewarded by the City Youth Union and the Ho Chi Minh City Vietnam Student Association.
At the end of the campaign, the Ho Chi Minh City Vietnam Student Association said it had admitted 222 new young party members and 5,469 new union members.
The Vietnam Youth Union of the City also admitted 501 new members and the Vietnam Student Association of the City admitted 3,386 new members.
