The "5.000 VND House" model has been implemented by the Dong Thap University Youth Union since 2010. Up to now, 80 houses have been donated to students from 8 provinces and cities in the Western region studying at Dong Thap University, with a total cost of 2,7 billion VND implemented.
From the initial idea of the "2.000 VND charity house" model, each student will contribute 2.000 VND/month, then increased to 3.000 VND/month/student and from 2020 until now the model has changed its name to " The house is 5.000 VND."
Mr. Truong Tan Dat - Chairman of the Council of Dong Thap University - shared that when implementing the model under conditions of lack of resources, it was quite difficult to implement 3-4 houses/year, and it was impossible to mobilize the community. socialization.
“We are very happy because after 15 years, people's lives have improved, there are not many people to consider receiving houses; The important thing to maintain the model is openness and transparency, with nearly 45.000 members supporting it.
However, during the implementation process, there are also difficulties, but we maintain the view that student money must help the school's students," Mr. Dat said.

Mr. Le Phuoc Vinh - Secretary of the Youth Union of Dong Thap University - said that the model fund currently has 363 million VND managed by the University Youth Union.
“Hopefully in the near future we will receive many comments from students and everyone so that the model can be maintained. There are opinions that it is necessary to support students outside the school to spread the model further. The school delegation will research and ask for opinions from school leaders to implement in the near future," Mr. Vinh said.
