The Moon Festival or Mid-Autumn Festival in Vietnam is held every year in August, according to the traditional Chinese lunar calendar. The festival is a special joy for children who are gifted on this day with moon cakes, fruit and beautiful toys.
This year our charitable organization in Hanoi has organized a workshop for handmade traditional Vietnamese moon cakes. Ms. Tue took care of 17 participating children.
The children were very excited at the matter: Mixing the dough, preparing the filling, forming the cake.
The homemade moon cakes were incredibly delicious and looked very nice.
Each child received as a gift some of the cakes prepared with much love and a lantern to take home.
In Ninh Binh our charitable organization has also organized a Moon Festival Celebration for 7 sponsored children. The children had a lot of fun. Some children came early in the morning at 6 clock to wait for the beginning of the celebration.
The joy was great as the children could make decorated fruit plates by themselves. There were delicious cakes, fruits and toys as gifts.
24 children who live in different places have also received gifts from “hope for tomorrow”. Our organization would like to thank all donors for the trust and support, which made it possible for us to prepare Mid-Autumn Festival with great joy for numerous children.
