Vietnam Buddhist Sangha’s Charity Committee in Son La supports house construction for disadvantaged family

The Charity Committee of the Vietnam Buddhist Sangha in Son La province, in coordination with the People's Committee of Chieng An ward, on September 9 provided 120 million VND (4,548 USD) in support for Quang Anh Tuan’s family in Tam Quynh hamlet to build a new house.

A representative of the Charity Committee of the Vietnam Buddhist Sangha in Son La province presents 120 million VND in support for Quang Anh Tuan from Tam Quynh hamlet.

Tuan, who lost both parents at a young age, currently lives alone and faces many hardships. Recently, his temporary shelter was completely destroyed due to flooding and could not be repaired. In response to his situation, the Charity Committee called upon monks, nuns, and Buddhist followers to donate and support him in building a new home.

The Charity Committee of the Vietnam Buddhist Sangha in Son La province provides essential supplies to Quang Anh Tuan.

The planned house will have an area of about 60 square meters and will be solid and safe, enabling Tuan to stabilise his life and work toward escaping poverty. A representative of the Chieng An ward People's Committee affirmed that the donation will be managed and used for the right purpose, in a public and transparent manner.

Additionally, the local government will coordinate with Tam Quynh hamlet to mobilise residents to contribute workdays and building materials, helping accelerate the construction process and hand over the house to the family as soon as possible.

This meaningful activity demonstrates the timely care and support of the Vietnam Buddhist Sangha and local authorities, helping poor and especially disadvantaged households recover from natural disasters and gradually stabilise their lives.
