Bringing the warmth of kindness to children
It can be said that each case of children in difficult circumstances and special circumstances supported through the Hanoi Social Work Center and Children's Support Fund contains long, sympathetic and emotional stories.
For example, the story of the family of Đ.Đ.AQ (born in 2019, residing in Tay Phuong commune (formerly Thach That district), Hanoi). At the age of 6, AQ's world has been associated with long, persistent treatments, since he was unexpectedly diagnosed with "idiopathic thrombocytopenia" - a disease related to blood clotting disorders, causing the patient to have mucosal bleeding and bruising in many places on the body. His family's situation was already difficult, now it is even more difficult when having to bear the additional burden of treating a serious illness. Understanding this case, the Center for Social Work and the Hanoi Children's Support Fund coordinated with Thien Tam Fund ( Vingroup ) to provide emergency support of 20 million VND, helping him and his family to ease some of the difficulties in the journey of treatment.
Or the story of two sisters LTQ (22 years old) - LAD (13 years old), Kham Thien street, Van Mieu - Quoc Tu Giam ward (Hanoi), who are mentally disabled. Their family had to sell their house in 2016 to pay for medical treatment for their two children. For the past 9 years, the whole family has been renting a place to live, from one place to another, until now they have temporarily settled down in a tube house of only 15m long and more than 2m wide on Kham Thien street. The inner room is only big enough to put a bed, without partitions. In the outer room, the mother of the two sisters has a sewing machine to both earn a living and conveniently take care of her children. The father of the two sisters drives a motorbike taxi, and when there are no customers, he takes care of his eldest daughter, because if she is not careful, she might get lost...

With the participation of the Social Work Center and the Hanoi Children's Fund, 20 million VND from the Thien Tam Fund was given to this family. More importantly, this case will continue to be cared for, monitored, and socialized resources will be mobilized for support by the Center.
These are just a few cases, out of thousands of children supported by the Hanoi Social Work Center and Children's Support Fund since the beginning of the year. In addition to providing emergency support, the Hanoi Social Work Center and Children's Support Fund also mobilize resources and provide regular support funds for children in difficult and special circumstances. Based on statistics for the first 6 months of 2025 alone, the Center has supported 4,111 children with a total budget of more than 4.9 billion VND.
