Mrs. The Kind

In An Hoa area, Long Binh ward, Ms. Nguyen Thi The is known as a compassionate person, always helping and sharing difficulties with unfortunate people. With the concept of "giving is forever", Ms. The has been giving without calculation or expectation of reward.

During a drizzly rain in mid-July, Ms. Tran Thi Ngoc Chau from An Hoa stopped by Ms. The’s house to receive 10kg of rice. Ms. Chau sells lottery tickets and earns very little, so Ms. The often gives her rice, helping her worry less about her daily food needs.

Ms. Chau emotionally said: “Every time I receive rice, I feel extremely warm. Thanks to Ms. The, my burden of making a living has been somewhat reduced.” Ms. The’s house is storing about 2 tons of rice so that lottery ticket sellers like Ms. Chau, or scrap collectors in difficult circumstances, can come and receive it at any time.

Mr. Nguyen Duy Phuong in Thanh Hieu area, Long My ward, is mentally unstable and lives alone. Mrs. The supported 20 million VND to build a small house for him to have shelter from the rain and sun. She also regularly visits, encourages and supports Mr. Phuong with rice and necessities.

Her family is a farmer and not very well off, but on average, Ms. The contributes more than 100 million VND to charity every year. Ms. The said that this was something that was passed down from her mother. When she was young, she often saw her mother giving rice to the poor after each harvest. Therefore, she wanted to continue her mother's good deeds and bring joy to those in difficult circumstances.

In recent years, Ms. The has expanded her charitable activities beyond her locality. At the end of May, Ms. The also went to the inpatient treatment area of Can Tho Children's Hospital to give 100 cash gifts worth 40 million VND to disadvantaged people. Can Tho Oncology Hospital, Hau Giang Province Social Work Center (formerly)... all recorded her charitable actions.

Ms. Duong Thi Dieu Hien, Head of the An Hoa Red Cross Branch, shared: “Ms. The is a shining example in local charity activities. She has made many positive contributions, not only materially but also spiritually, always accompanying the Red Cross Branch to help those in difficult circumstances. Her enthusiasm and kindness are a source of inspiration, spreading the charity movement.”
