VinaSoy and the Quang Ngai provincial chapter of the Vietnam Fatherland Front provide support to the family of Ms. Nguyen Thi Kieu

On the afternoon of 11 December 2012, on behalf of the provincial chapter of the Vietnam Fatherland Front, representatives from VinaSoy, along with representatives of local leadership, presented a symbolic cheque for 10 million VND to the family of Ms. Nguyen Thi Kieu as part of an initiative supported by the company’s fund for poor households. The money will be used to cover the family’s medical expenses and to alleviate their general situation of hardship. Kieu was featured in a televised charity special supported by the Vietnam Fatherland Front and aired on the provincial broadcaster on 4 May 2012.

Mr. Nguyen Quoc Tinh, deputy chair of the Vietnam Fatherland Front, and Mr. Truong Van Chung, representing the sponsor organization, presented a symbolic cheque for 10 million VND to the family of Ms. Nguyen Thi Kieu. 

Kieu’s family had been identified as one of the most disadvantaged in the commune. Thirteen years ago Kieu’s husband was injured in a traffic accident and lost the use of his legs. He was 50 years old at the time. With farming the family’s only source of income, Kieu was forced to work long days, and yet was still unable to afford medical care for her husband. For the past thirteen years, she has been the sole breadwinner of the family, taking charge of all household activities. She has worked tirelessly day in and day out. In the morning she searches for dry firewood, and in the afternoon she works in the rice fields. With her spare time she tries to provide adequate care for her husband.

Timely support from the Vietnam Fatherland Front has helped Kieu alleviate some of these hardships and provided the family with a much-needed source of income for medical treatment. 

VinaSoy fund for disadvantaged families presents 10 million VND to the family of Ms. Nguyen Thi Bay

In the afternoon of 8 January 2013, on behalf of the provincial chapter of the Vietnam Fatherland front, Mr. Le Van Sau, deputy director, and Mr. Nguyen Trong Thanh, VinaSoy marketing director, along with representatives of local leadership presented a symbolic cheque for 10 million VND to the family of Ms. Nguyen Thi Bay, a disadvantaged household in a village of Nghia Hanh district. The funds were provided by VinaSoy through the company’s fund for poor families in the province. In addition, the family received 4,850,000 VND in cash, 1 large box of instant noodles, 30 kg of rice, and 1 large box of milk donated by a group of women at the local market.

Mr. Nguyen Trong Thanh presents the amount of 10 million VND to Ms. Nguyen Thi Bay and her family. 

Ms. Bay was active as a vanguard youth in the war and has since married and raised a family, but her path in life has not been smooth. She initially moved her children to Lan Dong province and began earning a living. For over 12 years Bay and her three children lived a day-to-day existence in a rented shack. Tragedy struck the family five years ago when Bay was hit by a falling load of bricks and left with a lifelong disability. The family entered a new phase of hardship, further exacerbated when Bay was diagnosed with liver and kidney disease. Unable to cope with the situation, in the middle of 2012 the family moved from Bao Loc province back to Hanh Minh commune, Nghia Hanh surband district to live with Bay’s sister. Their situation is desperate.

In addition, the Vietnam Fatherland Front presented an amount of 5,150,000 VND collected from television viewers to the family of Mr. Nguyen Viet in Hanh Phuc commune. Mr. Phuoc was featured in a charity television “Connecting the hearts” special organized in part by the Vietnam Fatherland Front and Vietnam Broadcast Station.
