573 KG OF WASTE COLLECTED AT PHUC TAN PARK, HONG HA WARD WITH VIETPLASTIC & 61 KEEP VIETNAM CLEAN VOLUNTEERS

On June 6, 2026, Keep Vietnam Clean, in collaboration with VietPlastic Global and local authorities, organized an environmental cleanup activity at Phuc Tan Forest Park, Hong Ha Ward, Hanoi. The program was part of the “CLEAN-UP & GREEN-UP OUR CITIES” initiative, aiming to contribute to the preservation of clean, green, and beautiful public spaces while raising community awareness about environmental responsibility.

EVERY GREEN SPACE DESERVES COLLECTIVE PROTECTION

Phuc Tan Forest Park is one of the key public spaces for residents living along the Red River area. Over the years, the park has become a familiar destination for recreation, exercise, and community activities among local residents.

However, like many public spaces in urban areas, the park continues to face pressure from waste generated through daily use. This highlights that maintaining and protecting green spaces is not solely the responsibility of management authorities, but also requires active participation from communities, businesses, and social organizations.

With the goal of improving the environmental landscape and spreading a shared sense of responsibility for protecting living spaces, Keep Vietnam Clean and VietPlastic Global partnered with local authorities to organize the cleanup activity with the enthusiastic participation of volunteers.

MORE THAN HALF A TON OF WASTE COLLECTED 

The activity brought together representatives from Keep Vietnam Clean, VietPlastic Global, local authorities, and 61 volunteers from various community groups.

Before the cleanup began, Ms. Bui Ngoc Diep, Director of Keep Vietnam Clean, provided safety instructions, implementation guidelines, and task assignments for volunteer groups. In addition, Mr. Nguyen Quoc Huy, CEO of VietPlastic Global, and Mr. Dao Xuan Thuong, Head of Residential Group No.1, Phuc Tan Area, Hong Ha Ward, shared reflections on the importance of environmental protection and the role of collaboration among businesses, communities, and local residents in creating cleaner and greener living environments.

Over two hours, teams worked together to clean pathways, green areas, and locations where waste had accumulated within the park. Results from the cleanup included: 

♻️ A total of 573 kg of materials collected, including:

  • 312 kg of waste
  • 261 kg of weeds and plant biomass

Many areas within the park saw significant improvements following the activity, contributing to a cleaner and more welcoming environment for residents and community groups who regularly use the space.

In addition to its business operations, VietPlastic is gradually implementing Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) programs focused on community education, promoting responsible plastic use, and encouraging waste sorting, collection, and recycling practices.

The company’s support not only contributed to the successful implementation of the activity but also demonstrated a strong commitment to supporting initiatives that promote sustainable development and environmental protection.

We would also like to extend our gratitude to local authorities, residents of the Phuc Tan area, and all volunteers who dedicated their time and effort to making this meaningful community activity possible.

BUILDING GREENER SPACES TOGETHER

Every small action, from reducing waste and disposing of it responsibly to participating in community initiatives — contributes to building and protecting greener urban spaces.

Keep Vietnam Clean hopes that the positive spirit generated through the activity at Phuc Tan Forest Park will continue to spread, inspiring more individuals, organizations, and businesses to join hands in protecting a greener, cleaner, and more sustainable environment for future generations.
