(Baonghean.vn) - In order to pay tribute to the heroes who fell and sacrificed a part of their flesh and blood for the peace of the Fatherland, since the beginning of July, Nghe An youth have organized a series of practical and meaningful activities towards the families of war invalids, martyrs, and families with meritorious services to the revolution to express their gratitude.

Warm and meaningful activities

It has been a long time since the house of Mr. Tran Phuoc Hat in Thach Son commune, Anh Son district, has been filled with laughter and joy. Mr. Hat is a 4/4 disabled veteran with a serious back injury. Life passes quietly with only the elderly couple relying on each other. Every time July comes, the memories of his youth when he fought on the battlefields of Khe Sanh, Quang Tri make him feel emotional.

Returning after the war, the life of a war invalid is full of difficulties. Understanding those hardships, the youth of Thach Son commune in particular and Anh Son district in general have had many activities to accompany and share with him. And today, a day in mid-July, nearly 10 union members and youth in the commune were present at his house to personally prepare a warm and sincere meal for him.

From early morning, the members of the Youth Union went to the market and prepared meals. Without anyone telling them, everyone started working, some washing vegetables, some cooking, some cleaning the house. After the meal was finished, the members of the Youth Union sat down to eat with their families, chatting and sharing the difficulties in life.

In addition, the Youth Union units also implemented the model of "Garden of Love" by cleaning and renovating mixed gardens and planting dozens of fruit trees for families of wounded soldiers and relatives of martyrs. Through these activities, they have made an important contribution to educating the younger generation about the patriotic, resilient and indomitable traditions of previous generations, fostering love for the homeland, demonstrating the morality of "When drinking water, remember its source", remembering the great contributions of heroes, martyrs and people with meritorious services to the revolution.

Here, the team of doctors and nurses conducted general examinations such as measuring blood pressure, cardiovascular, ultrasound, consulting on disease prevention, health maintenance and dispensing medicine to people, mainly the elderly. The doctors and nurses kindly visited and encouraged, helping the wounded and sick soldiers feel the warmth, somewhat alleviating the loss and pain of war.

Mr. Vang Van Vien's family (born in 1952), in Phong village, is a poor household. Among his four children, one is affected by Agent Orange. Mr. Vang Van Vien shared: "Because of his old age and poor health, his life depends almost entirely on government subsidies. Every day, my grandparents limit their electricity use as much as possible to save money. Now, when the family has installed a solar-powered lighting system, they no longer have to worry about electricity bills. That is truly a great comfort for us in our old age."

Looking across the province, Secretary of the Provincial Youth Union Le Van Luong said that with the affection and responsibility of the young generation towards the revolutionary predecessors, war invalids, sick soldiers, policy families, former youth volunteers, families with meritorious services to the revolution who sacrificed for the independence and freedom of the nation, the Youth Union chapters at all levels in the province have been organizing many meaningful gratitude activities towards the 72nd anniversary of the Traditional Day of the Youth Volunteer Force (July 15, 1950 - July 15, 2022), the 75th anniversary of War Invalids and Martyrs Day (July 27, 1947 - July 27, 2022).
