According to Do Quang Thang, Nha Trang Youth Union Secretary, in the period 2019 – 2022, Covid-19 pandemic has affected Youth Union activities. However, the university Youth Union has made effort to maintain volunteering campaigns, namely Green Summer, exam season support and schooling assistance to meet the needs of Youth Union members and young people.

In 2020,  the university Youth Union launched a Green Summer Campaign with such activities as repairing flag poles, building children’s playgrounds and offering gifts totaling VND70 million to students in Khanh Vinh District. In 2021, during the Covid-19 outbreak, the green summer campaign focused on assisting in community screening and vaccination in Nha Trang City; organizing free journeys back home for 250 students, supporting rapid testing for 200 students returning home on their personal vehicles; mobilizing VND300 million for the free fair for school boarders and offering necessities to other students in need.

In addition, the University Youth Union has maintained the operation of 30 volunteers’ teams, attracting the participation of many students, organizing the Full Moon Festival totaling VND250 million/ year for kids; and New Year volunteering campaign annually; paying home visits to policy beneficiaries, etc. Many Green Sunday volunteering campaigns have been held with thousands of volunteers joining hands in clean-up operations within and around the campus and on Nha Trang Beach.
