Attending the programme were Deputy Secretary of the provincial Party Committee and President of the provincial VFF Committee Cha A Cua, representatives of the VFF committees of communes and wards, outstanding organisations and individuals, among others. 

In recent years, the VFF committees at all levels in Son La have focused on renewing public information and mobilisation efforts, combining face-to-face communication with digital platforms and promoting the role of more than 2,000 respected individuals, village elders and heads, and religious dignitaries.

They have also effectively implemented grassroots democracy, creating favourable conditions for residents to contribute opinions, exercise oversight and engage in social criticism. Campaigns launched by VFF committees at all levels have also been carried out effectively.

During the 2024-2026 period, the provincial “For the Poor” Fund received more than 112 billion VND (4.35 million USD). The provincial Relief Mobilisation Board raised over 302.4 billion VND, of which more than 292.7 billion VND was allocated to localities and families affected by natural disasters, while over 13 billion VND was provided to support people in other provinces and cities affected by natural disasters.

Alongside these efforts, VFF committees at all levels have actively implemented emulation movements and campaigns on environmental protection, eliminating temporary and dilapidated houses, encouraging Vietnamese people to prioritise Vietnamese goods, and honouring and supporting people who rendered service to the nation. They have also promoted science and technology development, innovation and digital transformation, while enhancing the pivotal role of their member organisations.

At the programme, the provincial VFF Committee launched activities in response to patriotic emulation movements and campaigns, calling on authorities at all levels, sectors, member organisations, the business community, benefactors and people to continue upholding solidarity, patriotism and self-reliance, and actively engage in production and business activities through specific, practical initiatives and actions suited to local conditions.

As part of the programme, the provincial VFF Committee received more than 7 billion VND in contributions from organisations and individuals to the “For the Poor” Fund.

The programme also honoured organisations and individuals for their significant contributions to social welfare during the 2024-2026 period and allocated funding for the construction of 20 houses in communes with many households in need of replacing temporary housing and those facing particularly difficult circumstances./.
