Since its operation in December 2023, the “Zero-dong supermarket” model launched by the Da Nang Vocational Training College has become a reputable address to give and share love, thereby bringing joy to people in difficult circumstances, and contributing to spreading humanistic values in the community.

At the supermarket, people in difficult circumstances are given gifts

Such items as clothes, bags, shoes and old books, donated by college lecturers, staff, students and benefactors, are available at the charity supermarket.

All of them are carefully classified before being delivered to recipients. The supermarket is open on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. Accordingly, each session has a lecturer and 2-3 students who are in charge of arranging and packaging the goods when someone comes to receive them.

The programme not only spreads the spirit of helping the community, but is also a place for vocational internships for students of the college’s Faculty of Economics, especially those majoring in logistics and marketing - communications.

At the supermarket, students experience skills such as sales, communication and business in order to meet the recruitment needs of businesses in the future.

The programme not only helps reduce the financial burden for difficult families, but also creates an environment for sharing love and humanity in the community.
