All levels of the Association accompany women in difficulty and orphans

The Women's Union of Phuoc Dong commune (Go Dau district) presented a shelter of love to Ms. Lieu Thi Nhi.

Among them, the activity of supporting the construction of houses for poor women is a typical highlight. The houses of love not only help women have a stable place to live and work with peace of mind, but also inspire confidence, empower them to gradually rise up, be more proactive in life and stick with the Association.

Ms. Lieu Thi Nhi (born in 1977), residing in Suoi Cao A hamlet, Phuoc Dong commune, Go Dau district, is a poor household. Her husband is often sick and unable to work.

Mrs. Nhi is the main breadwinner in the family, her income is mainly from hired work so it is unstable. Her son is currently doing military service. For many years, the whole family has lived in a dilapidated, makeshift house.

Understanding that situation, the Women's Union of Phuoc Dong commune mobilized donors to support the construction of a new house for Ms. Nhi's family with an area of 60m2, with a total cost of 140 million VND (of which the Union mobilized 100 million VND, the rest was contributed by family and relatives). Ms. Nhi emotionally shared: "I am very happy. With a new house, I can go to work with peace of mind, earn money to take care of my family. Thank you very much to the Women's Union."

In the first 6 months of 2025 alone, the Women's Union at all levels mobilized the construction and donation of 17 "Warm Houses of Love" with a total cost of 1.78 billion VND; and presented more than 25,000 gifts worth over 13 billion VND to members and women in difficult circumstances.

In particular, the "Godmother" program continues to spread strongly, mobilizing the cooperation of many organizations and individuals, providing practical and timely support to 243 orphans.

In the first 6 months of 2025, the total fund mobilized and connected to implement the program reached nearly 500 million VND, contributing to creating a solid foundation to help children overcome adversity and rise up in life.

The "Godmother" program helps create a solid foundation for orphans.

Nguyen Thi Thuy Hang, a 5th grader at Binh Phong Primary School in Thai Binh Commune, Chau Thanh District, is in a very difficult situation. Her father left when she was young and her mother passed away in 2020 due to illness. She is currently living with her grandmother. Over the past time, she has received attention, encouragement, and support from the local Women's Union.

She shared: “I feel lucky because the Women's Union members not only support me materially but also regularly encourage me mentally, creating conditions for me to participate in fun activities such as Mid-Autumn Festival and Children's Day; I promise to try my best to study well.”

According to Ms. Nguyen Thi Ngoc Anh - Vice President of Chau Thanh District Women's Union, the "Godmother" program not only has the meaning of timely material support but also long-term companionship, helping orphans gain more confidence and spiritual strength to overcome difficulties.

Therefore, the Association also focuses on organizing specialized activities, giving books, learning tools and creating conditions for children to participate in field trips and entertainment during holidays and Tet. These activities help to compensate for the lack of family affection, helping children become more confident, develop comprehensively and be more stable in life.

In addition to social security activities, the Women's Union at all levels effectively maintains many models to support local women such as: "Green savings", "Zero-dong stalls", "Exchanging trash for gifts", "Prosperous members helping disadvantaged members"... in which, the mutual support model between members has mobilized more than 1 billion VND, helping 423 women stabilize their lives.

Chairwoman of the Provincial Women's Union Phan Thi Thuy Van affirmed: "Caring for disadvantaged women and orphans is a journey full of love and responsibility of the organization.

Through each home donated, each gift sent and each orphan sponsored, we hope to provide a solid spiritual support, helping them gain more strength to rise up in life."

With the spirit of "Leaving no one behind", social security activities implemented by Women's Unions at all levels have spread love, ignited hope, and given strength to Tay Ninh women to firmly overcome difficulties and build an increasingly better life.
