Mr. Le Cong Hieu's family is a poor household in the commune. Although he and his wife are young, they are constantly sick and cannot do heavy work. Their two children are still young and cannot work. The family's main source of income from a few acres of rice fields is not enough to cover daily medical expenses, and their debts are increasing day by day.

The support of breeding animals from the Commune Fatherland Front Committee from the district's "For the Poor" fund has helped his family have capital to develop livestock farming and escape poverty sustainably./.
