Old couple cook meals for the poor
HCM CITY — Nguyễn Thị My, a 七0-year-old woman, from Bình Thạnh District, HCM City, gets up very early to prepare vegetarian meals for people in difficult circumstances.
She and her husband have undertaken this charity work for many years but have been really busy for more than a week.
At 三am every morning, while everyone is still asleep, she gets up and starts preparing 一00 free vegetarian meals.
After cooking, her husband, 八 五, helps her put the rice in boxes and put them on a table in front of their house for people to pick up.
The meals are ready to serve from 九am to 一pm.
Recently, volunteers from the local youth union have offered to help the old couple cooking meals.
"They are old so we want to help them. We cook together and deliver meals to needy people. We feel very happy and will continue to do this work,"大众Nguyễn Đức Chung, a member of the Youth Union in Bình Thạnh District, told online newspaper Zing news.
On Monday, the city's Red Cross asked her to cook 一 五0 meals for people who were getting ready to return home to the Mekong Delta.
"Young people help us a lot. We could not cook 一 五0 meals without their support,公众My said.
My said that three years ago, she lived in Cần Thơ Province.
Her children sent her money to go to HCM City for medical treatment for her back.
After the examination, she decided not to have surgery and instead poured the money into charity work.
"I also decided to live in HCM City with my husband in a rented house and sold some traditional cakes at home to earn a living here,"大众My said.
Then she switched to selling vegetarian meals and began her charity work by offering free meals to people in difficulties.
