On January 13, 2024, in response to the Blood Donation Red Spring Festival Campaign, AMATA City Ha Long collaborated with the Provincial Red Cross, Song Khoai People's Committee Commune, the Trade Union, and the Youth Union of Quang Yen Town to organize the Blood Donation Red Spring Festival 2024.

The Blood Donation event attracted the enthusiastic participation of over 200 volunteers and support teams. These units of blood will contribute to alleviating the blood shortage during the Lunar New Year, serving as a meaningful gift at the beginning of the new year for patients. This ensures more blood reserves for timely treatment, particularly leading up to and during Vietnam's traditional New Year.

On the same day, the AMATA City Ha Long team also participated in a volunteer program with the Provincial Youth Union - "Spring Sharing - Lunar New Year of Kindness," contributing to the care and encouragement of disadvantaged children in remote, isolated areas, and ethnic minority regions. Activities included group games, cooking for pupils, wrapping Chung Cake, and sharing lunch with 300 pupils at Dong Lam School (located in a remote area). During this event, AMATA and its partners donated 40 gifts to disadvantaged pupils.
