2019 fried spring roll campaign
From November 26th. to 28th., our team of volunteers swung into action, as they do every year, to prepare several thousand fried spring rolls which had been pre-sold. The local function room was transformed into a hive of activity, as you can see in the photo-reportage below.
Although this is a well-established campaign, it represents nonetheless a significant human commitment. We calculated that roughly 500 hours of voluntary work were necessary to successfully see the campaign through. Even though most of our volunteers are local people, one person did a 180 kilometer round trip to help us.
Les Enfants de Kontum wish to thank all these willing volunteers, as well as all the people who bought the fried spring rolls.
