"We launched a project calling for people to donate their unused bikes to disadvantaged children in Kon Tum and have received hundreds over the past 10 days," he stated. "Now, we're ready to take them to the children."
Nguyen Thi Trong, another team member, mentioned that the university students, local people, and some organisations have mostly donated the bikes. The team has also invested time and money in the repairs.
