Nghe An Business Youth Group brings warm winter to the highlands

Sharing with the land - people of "high and remote"

In recent days, the people and students of the Kindergarten and Primary School - Branch 2 of Huoi Tu Commune, Ky Son District have received many meaningful gifts and warm sharing from the youth of Nghe An Business Bloc.

Accompanying the young people in implementing the program, Mr. Tran Quang Hoa - Standing Deputy Secretary of the Provincial Business Party Committee shared that Huoi Tu is a commune assigned by the Provincial People's Committee to support and help the Provincial Business Party Committee. The commune has a total population of 4,688, with 98% being ethnic minorities; currently the poverty rate is 60.28% and the near-poverty rate is 20.36%.

Over the years, many charity programs have been implemented here, aiming to bring students and disadvantaged families companionship and sharing both spiritually and materially.

This year, under the direction of the Provincial Business Bloc Party Committee, the Bloc Youth Union has implemented many meaningful activities through the "Warm Winter - Volunteer Spring" Program in 2024. Through the program, the Bloc Youth Union coordinated with medical units in Vinh city and Huoi Tu Commune Health Station to organize health check-ups, consultations, and free medicine distribution for hundreds of people in the area.

At the same time, 10 gifts were given to 10 people in difficult circumstances in the area and hundreds of school bags and school supplies were given to students. The total value of the support activities is estimated at over 82 million VND.

Receiving the sentiments that the Youth Union and Youth Union of the Provincial Business Bloc deployed in the locality, Mr. Lau Chu Ca (Pha Xac village, Huoi Tu commune) could not help but be moved: “The care and support when Tet is approaching really helps the family have a more fulfilling Tet. Especially for the lonely elderly in the area, that sharing is really meaningful…”.

In addition to Huoi Tu commune, the youth of the Provincial Business Bloc and the Youth Union of the Electricity Company implemented the program "Lighting up the countryside" in Hoa Ly village, My Ly commune, with a total project value of up to 30 million VND. Along with that, many practical youth projects are also being widely implemented by the Youth Union bases.

Spread many meaningful programs

According to the Secretary of the Provincial Business Bloc Youth Union Nguyen Ba Tuan Anh, taking care of difficult circumstances in the province has always been of interest to the youth of the Bloc and implemented synchronously.

Before Lunar New Year 2023, the whole delegation gave away nearly 5,000 gifts worth more than 1 billion VND.

Promoting those achievements, entering the last months of 2023, the Standing Committee of the Youth Union of the Bloc continues to direct the Youth Union bases to organize activities to visit and give gifts to young people, workers in difficult circumstances, children in mountainous areas, and ethnic minority areas. In particular, the programs "Warm Winter", "Volunteer Spring", "Warm Winter for Children", "Year-end Meal", "Warm Spring of Love"... stand out.

In addition to material values, typical grassroots Youth Union units such as: Saigon Vinh Eye Hospital Youth Union; Vietcombank Nghe An Youth Union; Nghe Tinh Port Joint Stock Company Youth Union; Agribank Nghe An Youth Union... have simultaneously implemented many creative and practical programs to solve many essential needs of the people.

In particular, to create spiritual and material support for children in difficult circumstances, the Provincial Business Bloc Youth Union and its affiliated Youth Unions effectively implemented the "Youth's Foster Children" Program.

Up to now, the entire Youth Union has been responsible for helping 9 students with difficult circumstances to strive to study well. Every year, the Youth Union bases have gifts, support and encouragement for the students in their studies and on special occasions such as: Mid-Autumn Festival, the opening of the new school year...

These are truly practical and meaningful activities to promote the pioneering and volunteering role of young people. At the same time, they contribute to responding to the call of the Provincial Party Committee and the People's Committee of Nghe An province to support and help people in difficult circumstances in the province with the spirit of mutual love and affection, leaving no one behind as the Lunar New Year is approaching./.
