Building a bridge of happiness in the difficult area of Yen Bai

Khe Ba Hamlet, Kien Thanh Commune has more than 70 households of Dao and Tay ethnic groups. During the rainy season, this area is often cut off by rising floodwaters, making it difficult for students to get to school.
Sponsors have donated 220 million VND, joining hands with the villagers to build a new bridge. According to the design, this is a lightweight, reinforced concrete bridge, 6m long, 3.5m wide, 90m long connecting road with 18cm thick concrete . After completion, the project will contribute to connecting traffic with inter-commune roads, ensuring travel in all four seasons, helping ethnic minorities in the area develop production.

Previously, sponsoring units organized meetings and presented gifts to families with revolutionary contributions, relatives of martyrs, veterans, and war invalids in difficult circumstances in the area.

At the meeting, the sponsors donated 60 million VND to build and renovate a house for the martyrs’ relatives who are currently living in a temporary house; presented 12 gifts to two martyrs’ mothers and 10 war invalids in difficult circumstances, each worth 1 million VND; and provided 10 million VND to the Association for Supporting Martyrs’ Families to help the martyrs’ relatives collect and move the martyrs’ remains back to their hometowns.

This is a practical and meaningful activity to celebrate the 135th anniversary of President Ho Chi Minh's birthday (May 19, 1890 - May 19, 2025), responding to the program "The whole country joins hands to eliminate temporary and dilapidated houses" launched by the Government, striving to achieve the goal of eliminating more than 2,200 temporary and dilapidated houses by the end of June 2025.
