In the solid Great Unity house, Mr. Tran Van Duc's family (Tan Thoi A hamlet) could not hide their joy because after the recent heavy rains, they no longer had to fear the wind and rain. The family only had 3 hectares of land to raise shrimp, but the farming was not effective, so Mr. Duc had to work as a motorbike taxi driver, while his wife sewed carpets to make ends meet. Sympathizing with the family's situation, on the day the house was handed over, benefactors and local authorities provided additional support, including a TV, a fan, and 5 million VND to build auxiliary works, helping the family have a more comfortable living condition.

Mr. Tran Van Duc cherishes the house he just received.

Mr. Tran Van Duc shared: “My house is very degraded, on rainy days I have to use objects to cover it and catch the leaking water. Thanks to the government's attention, help and support for a solid house to protect us from the sun and rain, it not only helps us avoid worrying about where to live, but also creates great motivation to work, produce and develop the economy with peace of mind.”

Mr. Duc cleaned the TV donated by a benefactor.

Having no land to produce, and having to raise two children to go to school, the burden of life weighed heavily on the shoulders of Mrs. Tran Mong Linh and her husband (Tan Hong hamlet). The couple had to work hard, buying crabs in the morning and tying them up in the afternoon. Life became even more difficult when their two children entered university. The joy of the poor couple was overwhelming when local officials guided them to borrow capital from the student program of the Social Policy Bank, and at the same time supported them with preferential loans to raise ducks and invest in a crab meat purchasing model. This kind capital brought in a steady income, helping the couple to be able to take care of their two children's education.

Up to now, the eldest child has graduated and has a stable job, the youngest daughter is also in her third year of studying Business Administration at Bac Lieu University .

Mrs. Tran Mong Linh (sitting on the right) and her husband proudly shared with local authorities about the academic achievements of their two children.

All the money they earned was spent on their children's education, so the house made of local trees and leaves was dilapidated, but the couple never dared to think about building a new one. In March 2025, the local authorities announced that the family would receive support from the Soc Trang Lottery Company for a Great Unity house worth 60 million VND. The couple could not hold back their tears of joy. Because the house was not only a dream of many years but also a spiritual support to help the family stabilize their lives.

Promoting the core role in implementing the emulation movement "For the poor - No one left behind", the Vietnam Fatherland Front Committee of Ta An Khuong Commune closely coordinated with the government and member organizations to mobilize people and businesses in the area to contribute to the fund for the poor. With 1.8 billion VND mobilized since the beginning of the year, the commune's "For the poor" fund has been used to support the repair and construction of 9 Great Unity houses; 5 rural traffic bridges; 1,800 gifts, 30 bicycles, medical examination and treatment for 800 people...

“In order to better care for the poor, in the coming time, the Vietnam Fatherland Front Committee of Ta An Khuong Commune will coordinate with the government to review poor households to plan specific support for each group, focusing on housing and livelihood support. We also regularly check the management, mobilization and use of the For the Poor Fund, ensuring that support for the poor is public, transparent, for the right purpose and for the right people,” said Mr. Nguyen Hoang Tinh, Chairman of the Vietnam Fatherland Front Committee of Ta An Khuong Commune.

The social security programs for poor households and households in difficult circumstances of the Fatherland Front of Ta An Khuong Commune bring about sustainable and fundamental changes in each family, contributing to making great changes for the community. The effectiveness of helping and sharing is not only the number of material values, but also the story of trust and connection, so that each person, especially the poor, feels that they are not left behind, contributing to the province's effective implementation of the poverty reduction target in the coming period.
