At Tam Xuan 2 Health Station (Tam Xuan Commune) and Tam My Dong Health Station (Tam My Commune), many creative exchange activities were carried out between Korean volunteers and disabled children being cared for here.

Regardless of language or distance, with love, volunteers and disabled children and parents create crowns from leaves, draw pictures, make handprints to create "trees of hope", and play group games in a cheerful and friendly space.
