As per the agreement, from 2024 to 2026, the collective efforts of these organizations will result in the construction of 120 homes for families facing challenging circumstances in the province. Each home is valued at VND 50 million or USD 1.986, with the Bac Lieu Friendship Union contributing VND 25 million (USD 991) and the Literature and Arts Club under the Liaison Committee pledging the remaining funds. This program sets a precedent for future initiatives, offering a sustainable model for change.
Ngo Vu Thang, vice chairman of the Bac Lieu People’s Committee, expressed his gratitude for the unwavering support and generosity of the Liaison Committee and its benefactors. Thanks to their contributions, vulnerable families, the poor, and single elderly individuals have been empowered to lead more stable and dignified lives.

He also highlighted the need for diligent monitoring to ensure the highest level of effectiveness and impact, ultimately contributing to the long-term social well-being of the Bac Lieu-Ca Mau region.
