To organize this program, the group of young people planned one month in advance. They asked for a license to perform at the local government and the Berlin police. After forty-five minutes of performance, the total amount of money that the Vietnam Nursing Student Association in the Federal Republic of Germany received was about one thousand euros (equivalent to more than twenty-five million Vietnam dong). This money was immediately given to the Turkish community to transfer to earthquake victims in Turkey and Syria.
