Filled with joy
Running through the valley, the small road leading to Goc Gao village, Yen Dinh commune, Bac Ninh province, was still slippery in the days leading up to Tet (Lunar New Year) due to the previous night's rain. Nestled along the roadside, the small house hidden in an apple orchard belonging to Mrs. Lam Thi Tam seemed more bustling and lively with the arrival of a delegation from the province and commune to visit and offer New Year greetings. Born in 1947 and suffering from a congenital disability, Mrs. Tam, a poor single mother, has lived for many years in her house built with charitable donations, supported by her relatives and neighbors.

Receiving the heartfelt Tet gift from Vice Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee Le Xuan Loi, Mrs. Tam felt it was not just a material gift but also a source of spiritual joy as Tet approached. "Thank you to the government for caring for us people. I find the government very approachable," Mrs. Tam expressed.
Holding a heavy gift package containing cooking oil, chicken eggs, and a vacuum-sealed ham, Mr. Ngoc Van Tuu (born in 1950), a 45% disabled veteran from Thoi village, Duong Huu commune, said: "These gifts are truly meaningful. Along with the donated money, my family will have a more fulfilling and prosperous Tet holiday."
Comrade Le Xuan Loi, Member of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee and Vice Chairman of the People's Committee of Bac Ninh province, said: The Lunar New Year of the Year of the Horse is the first Tet after the merger of Bac Ninh and Bac Giang provinces, and this is also the first year the province has expanded the scope of gift giving to 100% of near-poor households.

Upholding the tradition of "drinking water, remembering the source" and showing mutual support, the Party Committee and government of Bac Ninh province have actively implemented various measures to care for war veterans, the poor, and families receiving preferential treatment during Tet (Lunar New Year). Particular attention has been paid to war veterans, poor and near-poor households, social welfare beneficiaries, children with special circumstances, the elderly, ethnic minority households, and laborers facing difficulties.
During the Lunar New Year of the Year of the Horse (Bính Ngọ), Bắc Ninh province established 24 delegations led by provincial leaders to visit and present gifts directly to Vietnamese Heroic Mothers, veteran revolutionary cadres, meritorious individuals, the elderly, and impoverished households. Simultaneously, localities also intensified efforts to care for meritorious individuals and vulnerable groups. With gifts from the central government, the province, and the support of the community and philanthropists, Bắc Ninh seriously and concretely implemented Directive No. 55-CT/TW of the Party Central Committee, ensuring that every household and every citizen could enjoy the Spring Festival and celebrate the New Year – affirmed Comrade Lê Xuân Lợi.

For the Lunar New Year of the Horse 2026, Bac Ninh province will allocate over 130 billion VND to give gifts to people with meritorious services, relatives of people with meritorious services to the revolution who are receiving monthly allowances, poor households; the elderly; social welfare beneficiaries, and children with special and difficult circumstances.
The Bac Ninh Provincial "For the Poor" Fund Campaign Committee allocated over 23.6 billion VND to provide Tet gifts to 100% of poor and near-poor households in the province. This money was transferred from the Bac Ninh Provincial "For the Poor" Fund account to the "For the Poor" Fund accounts of 99 communes and wards. Specifically, over 7,800 poor households received gifts worth 1.3 million VND each. Notably, to practically care for the people, this year, for the first time, 100% of near-poor households in the province received Tet gifts, each gift worth 1 million VND in cash. According to statistics, the province currently has 13,537 near-poor households.
According to Thai Hai Anh, Vice Chairman of the Vietnam Fatherland Front Committee of Bac Ninh province: To provide more resources to support the people, the Standing Committee of the Bac Ninh Provincial Fatherland Front Committee is focusing on directing the allocation of gifts based on the actual situation of each locality, arranging for units, businesses, and individuals to directly give gifts or organize Tet celebrations with the people.

This helps strengthen the bond between units and the people, avoiding duplication or omissions, and providing households with additional resources and motivation to improve their lives. At the same time, it ensures effective reporting, transparency in fundraising results, and builds trust among agencies, businesses, and sponsors, encouraging them to continue contributing to the fund – Ms. Thai Hai Anh stated.
During this year's Lunar New Year gift-giving campaign in Bac Ninh province, thousands of gifts, including essential household items and cash, were personally delivered to eligible households by businesses and philanthropists. For example, in eight disadvantaged mountainous communes of the former Son Dong district, representatives from DABACO Vietnam Joint Stock Company, Trong Tin Group Joint Stock Company, and Thinh Cuong Construction Company Limited directly donated 400 gift packages and 200 million VND to the recipients.

According to Mr. Nguyen Van Hue, Director of the Bac Ninh Comprehensive Social Welfare Center, during the Lunar New Year of the Year of the Horse (2016), 44 individuals with severe disabilities, orphans, and elderly people without family support celebrated the holiday at the center. In the days leading up to Tet, many Party and government agencies, mass organizations, and individuals visited, offered New Year greetings, and presented gifts.
