Over the years, the Party, government, people, and business community inside and outside the province have always paid attention to leadership, direction, and mobilization of resources to carry out the work of protecting, caring for, and educating children. Thanks to that, children in the province in general are increasingly protected, cared for, and educated better, and the basic rights of children are guaranteed.

Hundreds of thousands of poor children and children in especially difficult circumstances have been supported and helped through building houses, giving gifts, scholarships, bicycles, wheelchairs, and giving disabled children free surgery. These actions have helped to ignite their faith and determination and created conditions for them to have the opportunity to develop and integrate into the community like other children.

June - Month of Action for Children has become a regular activity to increase the attention of all levels, sectors, families and the whole society for the work of protecting, caring for and educating children.
