Doan Trang and Thanh Bach, hosts of the latest season of Buoc Nhay Hoan Vu (Vietnamese version of Dancing with the stars), will become goodwill ambassadors for charity program Green Journey 2011.

Other celebrities like actor Quyen Linh, Miss Vietnam 2006 Mai Phuong Thuy, model Truc Diem will also take part in this 1,560 kilometre walking trail through 16 provinces and cities in Vietnam until August 12.

At each stop, participants will take part in various community services like holding seminars on environmental protection, planting trees, repairing roads, visiting and giving gifts to households caught with Agent Orange, and rewarding scholarships to poor students.

This program is an opportunity for young people to get involved in community works and share pains with less fortunate people.

“Green journey charity program creates a great environment for young people to improve their strength and to overcome difficulties in life. This is a chance for everyone to join and challenge themselves,” commented famous show host Thanh Bach.

Founded in 2008, Green Journey has attracted celebrities and young people to join in charity works in different provinces all over the country.
