Mr. Lo Xuan Thanh's family has 4 members (including 2 parents, son and 1 grandchild), economic conditions are difficult, income is only enough to cover daily life, no savings. The old house built many years ago is seriously degraded, can collapse at any time but there is no fund to repair or rebuild.

With financial support from Nghe An General Hospital and relatives helping with labor, Mr. Thanh's family borrowed more money to build a new house with an area of ​​about 40 square meters, walls built with panels, roofed with corrugated iron. It is expected that within the next 1 to 2 months, Mr. Thanh's family's Great Unity House will be completed and put into use with a total estimated cost of about 100 million VND.
