Youth Union sends love

Nguyen Thi Kieu Vy (Cam Le ward) has a particularly difficult situation. Her mother has heart disease and is often sick; her father had a work accident and his health has declined.

Once at risk of dropping out of school, but since 2022, Vy has been sponsored by the City Police Department's Records Department Youth Union and has been receiving regular support of 1 million VND/quarter. At the beginning of the new school year, in addition to financial support, the Youth Union also gave her school supplies and books to help her continue going to school.

Le Duc Viet (Hoa Xuan Ward) is also in a pitiful situation as he has autism and his family is in a difficult situation. In early 2024, the Youth Union of the Detention Camp, City Police Department took over and supported Viet with 1 million VND/quarter. In addition, the Youth Union members regularly come to encourage, give gifts, books, clothes, and motivate him to integrate and study hard.

These are 2 of 33 students in the area that the police youth union has taken care of and sponsored under the model "Accompanying you to school".

Lieutenant Colonel Ho Dinh Tri, Deputy Head of the Youth Department of Da Nang City Police, said that the above model was deployed by the Youth Department in 2019. The support of the police branches not only provides material support but also a source of spiritual encouragement, helping the children on their learning path.

At the beginning of the new school year, the police youth union continued to visit, give financial support for the third quarter and give away school supplies, books, and clothes to help the children go to school.

Looking forward to the 2025-2026 school year, many Youth Union branches in the city have implemented practical activities to support disadvantaged students. On August 18, 50 Youth Union members from Dong Duong commune poured concrete in the school yard and renovated classrooms at Binh Lanh Kindergarten, contributing to ensuring facilities to welcome children to the new school year.

Previously, the City Party Committee organized the volunteer program “Pink Vacation” in Song Vang Commune, presenting more than 20 gifts to disadvantaged students. In addition, the City Youth Union has just launched the program “Giving Knowledge - Winging Dreams” at Prao Town Primary School (Dong Giang Commune) and presented 100 gifts, milk, and 10 scholarships to students.
