Hanoi (VNA) — Nearly 30,000 gift packages will be delivered to poor households, workers, and people in especially difficult circumstances nationwide on the occasion of the 2026 Lunar New Year (Tet), according to a newly issued plan of the Vietnam Fatherland Front (VFF).
On behalf of the Standing Committee of the VFF Central Committee, Ha Thi Nga, a member of the Party Central Committee and Vice Chairwoman of the VFF Central Committee, signed Plan No. 96/KH-MTTW-BTT on coordinating visits and gift-giving activities to the poor, workers, and disadvantaged groups during the coming Tet.
According to the plan, visits and gift-giving activities will be carried out in a coordinated and unified manner among VFF committees at all levels and socio-political organisations to ensure effective support, avoid overlap or omission, and guarantee that funding sources are used transparently and efficiently in accordance with regulations.
Funding for gifts for poor and near-poor households, and people in especially difficult circumstances will be allocated by the Standing Committee of the VFF Central Committee from the central “For the Poor” Fund and other appropriate sources.
Gifts for workers will be arranged by the Vietnam General Confederation of Labour.
Meanwhile, funding for gifts for people with disabilities, the elderly without family support, orphans, people in especially difficult circumstances, and those affected by natural disasters and epidemics will be mobilised and allocated by the Vietnam Red Cross Society. Other socio-political organisations and VFF member organisations will mobilise resources to support their members and beneficiaries in need.
Of the total of 30,000 gift packages to be delivered nationwide, the VFF Central Committee will allocate 10,200 gift packages with a total value of over 13.26 billion VND (504,410 USD) to people in 34 provinces and cities. Each locality will receive 300 gift packages, each consisting of 1 million VND in cash and a gift bag worth 300,000 VND.
In addition, VFF leaders will conduct visits to four localities, with 200 gift packages per locality, worth 1.04 billion VND in total. A reserve of 1,650 gift packages has also been set aside to meet practical requirements during additional visits by Party, State and VFF leaders.
The gift-giving activities for Tet are scheduled to take place from January 26 to February 13 (from the 8th to the 25th day of the last lunar month), contributing to ensuring that no one is left behind during the traditional New Year holiday./.
