In Phu Nghia commune, Dong Nai province, there is a connecting group called “Tam Thien Nguyen” that is quietly spreading that beauty. They go to poor sick children to hold on to life, to students in difficulty to help them go to school. It all starts with the word “Love” - love to help, share and to see that in this life there are always miracles that exist from the human heart.
Miracle from liver transplant costing more than 700 million VND
In his grandmother's small, simple house, Tran Quang Hieu's life was a series of days struggling with the dangerous disease of cirrhosis. With no stable home or income, Pham Thi Nga - Hieu's mother - had to shoulder the burden of raising 3 young children in a difficult situation. It was thought that Hieu would have no chance to live, but a miracle happened when the Tam Thien Nguyen connection group raised more than 700 million VND to help Hieu have a successful liver transplant.
Ms. Nga emotionally said: “I really don’t know what to say other than thank you. If it weren’t for the uncles and aunts in the Tam Thien Nguyen group, my child would not have seen the light of day today. Now, seeing my child eating well and running around like any other child, I can only bow my head in gratitude to the hearts that saved my child.”

That miracle started from a charity trip in Tan Lap village 2 years ago, when Mr. Nguyen Trong Truong, Head of the Tam Thien Nguyen Connection Group in Phu Nghia commune, met Hieu. At that time, the boy was just over 1 year old, his belly was as big as a ball, his eyes were yellow and cloudy, and his breathing was weak. Feeling sorry for his situation, Mr. Truong called everywhere, and then the liver transplant was successfully performed in November last year.
Mr. Truong expressed: “When I posted the appeal, I really just hoped for some money to help my child with treatment. Unexpectedly, there were so many people who sympathized and joined hands to help. It was those hearts that made me believe that kindness still exists around us, it just needs to be awakened at the right time. Now seeing my child healthy, I feel like I have more strength and faith to continue this journey.”

Since recovering from the surgery, Hieu has been “born again”. His rosy cheeks, bright eyes and bright smile are proof of his will to live and the power of human love. Every time the Tam Thien Nguyen group returns to visit his home, everyone is moved to see Hieu now know how to say hello, smile and run around the yard. These seemingly simple things are, to them, a miracle.
“We once saw Hieu barely breathing, everyone was worried that he would not survive. But today he is healthy and alert. How touching! The Tam Thien Nguyen group has done something that even his relatives did not dare to think of when saving a small life. This is a very humane act, making us believe that love can overcome all adversities” - Mr. Bui Van Duc, Head of Tan Lap village, Phu Nghia commune expressed.
The miracle lies not only in the successful liver transplant, but also in each heart that gathered love to save a small life. From the hands of strangers, hope was kindled, so that a child could live, a mother could smile. Hieu's liver transplant journey did not stop at the two words "resurrection", but also continued to write a story about the power of kindness - the simplest but greatest miracle in this life.
Continue writing dreams for poor children
The story of Tran Quang Hieu is just one of many charitable journeys that the "Thien Nguyen Heart" connection group in Phu Nghia commune has been quietly writing. After each journey, they not only help small lives overcome illness, but also give strength to hundreds of dreams of studying, so that poor students can still go to school. They go to each school, learn about each child's situation, then connect with kind hearts to give scholarships, gifts at the beginning of the school year, brand new uniforms... Each gift, though small, carries the faith, hope and love of many people near and far.

At Hoang Dieu Primary School (Phu Nghia Commune, Dong Nai Province) - where nearly 80% of the students are ethnic minorities, the journey of spreading knowledge has never been easy. Many children come to class with worn-out sandals and worn-out shirts, some have to walk kilometers to school. However, in their innocent smiles, there is still a simple happiness because they know that there are always people who "love" them, watching and supporting them from behind.
Ms. Le Thi Sen, Principal of Hoang Dieu Primary School, expressed: “With nearly 80% of students being ethnic minorities, the school faces many difficulties in teaching. Many students were at risk of dropping out of school because they did not have enough conditions. But in recent years, thanks to the care of the Tam Thien Nguyen connection group, the students have had more uniforms, school bags, and notebooks. It is not only a material gift but also a great source of spiritual encouragement for them to have more determination to go to school.”
From the hands of the group members, the gifts were handed to each student. For them, it was a joy, a motivation to continue the journey of giving love. Each trip, each gift was an opportunity to connect hearts.
"We go to each school, learn about each specific situation, and then call on local and foreign donors to join hands to help. The group's goal is to support the right people - poor, studious students, orphans, and ethnic minority children. I always think that when we sow a "seed of love", sooner or later it will sprout into a miracle. And it is those simple miracles that are helping children continue to go to school" - Mr. Nguyen Trong Truong, Head of the Tam Thien Nguyen Connection Group expressed.
From that simple yet profound word “love”, the group connecting Tam Thien Nguyen has written a beautiful story about kindness. They simply love the children who have not grown up yet, love the small dreams that need to be cherished. It is that love that has lit up miracles when life is revived, when dreams are continued.
