The Red Spring Festival launched in 2008 is Vietnam’s biggest blood donation campaign.

It is organized by the Central Institute of Hematology and Blood Transfusion, Hanoi Youth Campaign for Blood Donation, and Hanoi City Steering Committee for Voluntary Blood Donation Campaign to overcome the shortage of blood right after Lunar New Year.
