Nghe An Province Young Entrepreneurs Association gives gifts to Dan Lai ethnic minority students
(Baonghean.vn) - On the afternoon of November 4, the Nghe An Province Young Entrepreneurs Association organized a donation of school supplies and necessities in Mon Son Commune, Con Cuong District.
Responding to the call of Con Cuong district, some units have carried out practical activities to support Dan Lai ethnic minority students at the border dormitory in Mon Son commune, Con Cuong district. Specifically, Nghe An Young Entrepreneurs Association has supported poor Dan Lai students with school supplies, food, rice... with a total value of more than 170 million VND; supported 10 excellent Dan Lai students, each with a gift of 500,000 VND.

Along with that, Vietnam Cement Company donated 100 million VND to Mon Son commune to build a bridge for people in Yen Village. On this occasion, the Con Cuong District Young Entrepreneurs Association also supported poor students in Dan Lai with a gift worth 10 million VND.

Mon Son is a particularly disadvantaged commune in the mountainous district of Con Cuong, with uneven educational levels, backward customs and practices, and many difficulties in the lives of the people. This is also home to the Dan Lai people, with 100% of them being poor households.

The Dan Lai are an ethnic minority living mainly in the western mountainous areas of Nghe An province. The Dan Lai people were previously at risk of extinction due to poverty, backwardness and incestuous marriages. However, today, thanks to the attention of the Party and the State, the lives of the ethnic minorities here have changed and are gradually integrating with the community of other ethnic groups in the area.
