Due to the impact of storm No. 3 (Wipha) and the storm's circulation, Western Nghe An suffered an unprecedented flood in history, causing extremely serious damage to people and property. Many houses were swept away and collapsed; thousands of hectares of crops and aquaculture ponds were flooded and lost; many roads and bridges were severely damaged; many areas were deeply submerged in floodwaters, some localities were completely cut off and isolated.

In particular, the flood on the evening of July 22 left many households in the center of Muong Xen and the communes of Muong Tip, Muong Ai... (former Ky Son district) unable to react. Water flooded into houses, carrying away trees and mud, causing furniture to be swept away or severely damaged. After the flood receded, the localities were left with mud, wood, and damaged household items. Mud and wood from upstream piled up like mountains, making recovery work difficult.

In the spirit of mutual love, hundreds of people from the blocks and villages volunteered to go to the damaged areas to overcome the damage. Among them, the staff of Ky Son Social Policy Bank always accompanied and shared with practical actions, promptly supported and warmed the hearts of the people to overcome the flood.

From July 22 to 24, 2025, Ky Son Social Policy Bank organized a campaign to support flood recovery at the headquarters of Muong Xen Commune People's Committee and households with severe damage. Every day, 13 officers and employees directly participated in cleaning up mud, repairing houses, and supporting people's daily life.

Not stopping there, right at the time of the flood, the unit deployed emergency support for 5 severely affected households with practical gifts including instant noodles and eggs. These are essential necessities to help people overcome the difficult times ahead.

After the flood, the agency's Union also plans to allocate about 5 million VND from the union members' mobilization fund to continue to support disadvantaged families, demonstrating the spirit of "mutual love" and "helping each other" of the staff and workers in the unit.

Mr. Lo Kham Lai in Block 5 (Muong Xen Commune) - one of the households severely affected by the flood in Muong Xen Commune shared: "The sudden flood caused my house to be deeply submerged in mud, and many household items were damaged. Thanks to the staff of Ky Son Social Policy Bank who came to help clean up and provide necessities, my family's life has temporarily stabilized."

Spread the spirit of serving the people

Notably, although the unit itself was affected by natural disasters - 3 officers had their houses flooded - with a spirit of solidarity and responsibility, all were quickly supported and stabilized in their accommodation to continue working together to fulfill their duties for the community.

Mr. Ngo Minh Tu - Director of Ky Son Social Policy Bank shared: "In the living conditions in the rugged terrain, with frequent natural disasters, people who are already struggling are even more vulnerable. As a bank for the poor, we identify that accompanying the people is not only our responsibility but also our sentiment and mission."

Under the direct guidance of Director Ngo Minh Tu and Deputy Director Phan Ba Cuong, the timely and substantial activities of the Ky Son Social Policy Bank in recent times have created a beautiful impression in the hearts of the local government and people. The unit is not only a "midwife" in terms of capital for poor households, near-poor households, and policy beneficiaries, but also a solid spiritual support for people whenever they encounter difficulties and misfortunes.

There are still many difficulties ahead, but everyone shows determination to complete the work and help people stabilize their lives soon. Photo: Dao Tho

“We really thought we had run out of options, every household was severely affected by the flood so we didn’t know who to turn to. The staff of Ky Son Social Policy Bank arrived in time to help our family overcome the immediate disaster. Although we know there are still many difficulties, we still feel very warm-hearted” – Ms. Nguyen Thi Ly, a resident of Cau Tam village (Muong Xen commune) that suffered heavy damage after the flood confided.

The quick and meaningful intervention in this flood is a clear demonstration of the spirit of “serving the people” of Ky Son Social Policy Bank – a place that not only provides opportunities to change lives with capital, but also spreads humanistic values, solidarity and sharing in the community.
