Following Typhoon No. 3 ( Yagi ) – the strongest typhoon in the South China Sea in the past 30 years and on land in Vietnam in the past 70 years – thousands of families in the northern provinces suffered heavy losses. Their homes, property, and everything they had accumulated over the years were swept away by the fierce storm. Faced with this devastation, the "Living After the Flood" program was created to provide new livelihoods for the people.

The "Living After the Flood" program, organized by the Army Youth Committee of the Ministry of National Defense in collaboration with various organizations such as the National Volunteer Center, the Youth Union of Vietnam Television, and the An Phuc Charity Club, is scheduled to take place in early December.
The main objective of the program is to donate 400,000 chicks, 400 pigs, and 40 cows to affected people.
Over the past period, the Army Youth Committee, along with members of the organizing committee, has conducted surveys in heavily affected areas such as Tuyen Quang and Ha Giang, and will continue to Lao Cai, Yen Bai, Cao Bang , and Bac Kan. These are places that not only face difficulties in accessing relief due to rugged terrain, but are also grappling with serious consequences after the storms and floods.

Sharing about the current situation, Mr. Chu Viet Ha, Chairman of the An Phuc Charity Club, said: "People have lost all their homes and property, and their rice and crops have been severely damaged. In the North, people can only grow two rice crops a year, meaning they have to wait until May or June of the following year to harvest again."
The "Living After the Flood" program hopes to help people find new livelihoods and rebuild their lives after a natural disaster. In particular, the program will focus on supporting households in remote and disadvantaged areas that receive little assistance. The goal is to create a solid foundation for people to develop livestock farming and restore their family's economy.

In 2020, the program supported 10 communes in Quang Binh and Quang Tri provinces with 100,000 chicks, 40 cows, and nearly 20 tons of poultry feed, bringing significant benefits to many families.
"Living After the Flood" is not just a support program, but also a symbol of humanity, demonstrating the solidarity and unity of the community in overcoming difficulties and rebuilding a more sustainable life for people in Northern Vietnam after the storms and floods.
