The “Red Spring” festival, held annually after the Lunar New Year holiday, aims to help ensure sufficient blood supply for medical use which, in the past, often faced a serious shortage after the country’s biggest and longest holiday.

The annual event is also a festival of kindness as it shows the benevolent spirit of volunteers and blood donors in voluntary blood donation activities.

Since the beginning of February, 17 blood donation campaigns have been launched across the province and collected 3,500 blood units.
