Tay Ninh (VNA) – An event was held to present 3.5 billion VND (nearly 140,000 USD) to support progammes aimed at eliminating temporary and dilapidated houses and ensuring social welfare, and 1,000 gifts to policy beneficiary and poor households in Tan Chau district, the southern province of Tay Ninh, as the Lunar New Year approaches.
The event was a joint effort involving a delegation of the provincial National Assembly deputies, the Tan Chau district People’s Committee, Hung Nhon Group and De Heus Group.
The donation from Hung Nhon Group and De Heus Group included 1 billion VND to the provincial chapter of the Vietnam Fatherland Front’s fund for Agent Orange victims, 2 billion VND to a programme aimed at eliminating temporary and dilapidated housing, and 1,000 gift packages valued at 500 million VND to policy beneficiaries and impoverished families.
Vu Manh Hung, Chairman of the Hung Nhon Group’s Board of Directors, said the joint venture between Hung Nhon Group and De Heus Group is deploying a chain of 12 hi-tech agricultural projects in Tay Ninh, which not only showcases its dedication to sustainable investment but also contributes to local economic development. Many products from the venture successfully reach demanding markets in Europe and Halal-certified regions.
The joint venture is dedicated to helping the community by assisting low-income households, providing scholarships for disadvantaged yet academically gifted students, especially those in border areas, and scaling up support models to other localities where its projects are based, he said.
Vice Secretary of the district Party Committee and Chairman of the district People’s Committee Vu Hong Sang reported that since early 2024, Hung Nhon Group has funded the construction of six houses for disadvantaged families, with a total investment of 960 million VND - each worth 160 million VND. In addition, thousands of gift packages have been distributed to policy beneficiary, poor and near-poor households across the district./.
