Spreading love from houses of love
Having lived in a makeshift, dilapidated house, Mr. Danh Lanh's family (Ninh Phuoc hamlet, Hong Dan commune) now has a solid, spacious home. This Great Solidarity House was built from the For the Poor fund supported by the Vietnam Fatherland Front Committee of the province, worth 60 million VND.
Mr. Lanh was moved: “Thanks to the support to build a new house, my family no longer has to worry about the rain and wind. That help not only brings a warm home, but also gives my family more motivation to overcome difficulties, strive to do business, and rise up in life. Thank you for the attention of the Party, the State, and the community for difficult circumstances like my family.”

More than 3 months ago, 4 people in the family of Ms. Tran Thi Hong Gam (An Trach Dong hamlet, Vinh Trach ward) had to live crowded in a dilapidated corrugated iron house with thatched walls. Every time there was a storm or wind, the house could collapse at any moment. Ms. Gam worked as a scrap collector, her husband worked as a hired worker. Income was unstable, she and her husband were both chronically ill, and their 2 young children were struggling to make ends meet, let alone think about repairing or rebuilding the house.
Understanding the difficulties of Ms. Gam's family, in June 2025, the Provincial Farmers' Association mobilized donors to support the construction of the " Farmer's Shelter " house. Ms. Hong Gam shared: "After many years of hard work, my husband and I have always been stuck in poverty. Thanks to the support and care of the government and philanthropists, my family not only has a solid roof, but also receives rice and school supplies for my children. Now that we have a solid house to live in, we can work with peace of mind to improve our lives and have the conditions to take care of our children's education."

These are just two of the stories of love and sharing from the whole society towards the poor. It is the concern of all levels, sectors and the whole society that has given them the motivation to strive to stabilize their lives.
