More than 30 young people started walking at 6am from Tram Huong Tower across Tran Phu Street and vice versa, with a total distance of 7km. In the morning of August 7, the participants walked 150km. Each kilometer of the target 2,000km is turned into a warm coat to be given to the disadvantaged children. Manh will buy the coats by his own money. The program also welcomes the donation from people everywhere to help the disadvantaged children in highland regions to have a warm winter.

The program is carried out in 17 provinces and cities over the country from August 1 to 19. From the beginning of August until now, the program has taken place in 7 provinces with more than 1,000 participants walking nearly 3,000km. “I often participate in charity activities in the form of jogging, walking or gift giving. After each program, I feel very happy knowing that I contributed a good thing to society,” said Dang Thi Khanh Hoa, a participant.
