The Standing Board of the Vietnam Fatherland Front (VFF) Committee of Son La province has received more than 17 billion VND (701,176 USD) from agencies, units, businesses and individuals in support of the “Fund for the Poor”.

The effort responded to the “Month for the Poor” campaign, which lasted from October 17 to November 17.

Of the sum, over 6.5 billion VND was mobilised by provincial agencies and more than 10 billion VND by those at the district level. With the funding, all-level VFF committees and their member organisations will support poor households and others in difficult circumstances, ensuring that no one is left behind.
