On
the 3rd of October
2009, the Moon Festival was celebrated in
Vietnam. This is a special day for children.
The traditional mooncake is a part of the custom on this
day. The date varies annual according to the moon
calendar.
On
this day, all children in Vietnam receive a plate of candies and cake. In the
evening, the children wait until the full moon appears. Then they are allowed to
eat the candy. Everywhere there is celebration, music and
dance.
Hope
For Tomorrow organized together with other groups from Hanoi a celebration
for the children in the “Hope-Orphanage”.
Our
volunteers in Hanoi set up a program for the children, including music,
dance, crafting of lanterns, painting etc. Small presents, books, school-items
and clothing were given to the
children.
With the help of your donations, we could bring joy and a happy day
to the children in the orphanage. We thank all our donors for their support.
