In this research article, we rely on the "giving" theory of Marcel Mauss (2015) to clarify the difficulties and challenges of nuns in Ho Chi Minh City regarding charity work. We studied the case of nuns practicing at Quan Am Monastery in Phu Nhuan district. With enthusiasm and unremitting efforts, the Nuns have overcome many difficulties and challenges to provide timely support to people in difficult circumstances.
