After a period of arduous and fierce war, Uncle Ho's soldiers returned from all battlefields, integrated into a new life, but there were still difficult circumstances that needed help and sharing. Based on that reason, in recent years, the "Comradely Love" fund has been effectively implemented by the Veterans Association at all levels in the province, contributing to uniting members, supporting each other, helping each other develop the economy, and stabilizing their lives.
In 2024, the War Veterans Association at all levels in Lam Thao district promoted its role and responsibility, closely followed the political tasks of the district and the grassroots, and effectively implemented the set targets and tasks. The Association actively mobilized cadres and members to participate in the movement to join hands in building advanced, exemplary new rural areas and civilized urban areas and actively participated in supporting funds such as: War Veterans' Love Fund; humanitarian and charity fund; fund for the poor.... At the same time, the Association coordinated with socio-political organizations to build 3 new "Comrades' Love" houses for members with difficult housing circumstances with a total amount of nearly 200 million VND.
Representatives of the district leaders and the Association of War Veterans of Lam Thao district presented support money from the "Comradely Love" fund to war veteran Nguyen Dinh Thien.
These days, the house of veteran Nguyen Dinh Thien in Trung Chinh area, Phung Nguyen commune is warmer because everyone in the neighborhood comes to chat and share the joy when his new house is completed.
Mr. Thien joined the army in 1977 and was discharged in 1982. He fought in the war and was injured on the Cambodian battlefield with a 4/4 disability. Due to poor health and difficult economic circumstances, his family lived in a seriously degraded level 4 house. Faced with this situation, the district and local War Veterans Association decided to support part of the cost of building a "Comradely Love" house for member Thien.
The house was built on an area of 90 square meters, with a flat roof, heat-resistant tiles, ceramic tiled floors and auxiliary works, kitchen, yard, gate, fence with a total cost of over 300 million VND. Of which, the District Veterans Association supported 40 million VND, the Phung Nguyen Commune Veterans Association supported 2 million VND, the Commune Red Cross Association supported 1 million VND, the rest was supported by family, brothers, relatives and benefactors.
Mr. Thien said emotionally: This is a very meaningful gift in my life as the new year is approaching. Even in my dreams, I never thought that one day I would be able to live in a spacious house like this. I hope that there will be many people like me who will be helped by teammates, organizations and benefactors to have a solid place to live, work and produce with peace of mind, and improve their lives.

Like CCB Nguyen Dinh Thien, CCB Nguyen Van Am, Zone 16, Dong Thanh Commune, Thanh Ba District, enlisted in 1975. During the fight to protect the Fatherland, he was injured with a disability assessment of level 4/4. Returning to live in the locality, his family was in a particularly difficult situation, the couple lived in a small house of less than 30 square meters, leaking rain and hot sun. Worried about the situation of his comrade, the Provincial CCB Association mobilized and supported the construction of a new house for Mr. Am with a total cost of nearly 200 million VND, of which the Provincial CCB Association allocated the "Comradely Love" fund to support 50 million VND.
In recent years, the Provincial Association of War Veterans has done a good job of mobilizing, attracting many organizations, units, businesses, philanthropists and a large number of members to join hands and support in many forms. In the past 5 years, the Provincial Association of War Veterans and the Associations at the grassroots level have provided financial support for the construction and repair of "Comradely Love" houses for nearly 300 War Veterans and meritorious people in especially difficult circumstances, helping them have stable housing with a total value of over 15.9 billion VND.
The “Comradely Love” houses have contributed to realizing the dream of settling down, demonstrating the spirit of sharing with comrades and teammates of Uncle Ho’s soldiers in any circumstances. Thereby, enhancing the role and position of the Association in caring for the material and spiritual life of its members, contributing to the effective implementation of poverty reduction programs, eliminating temporary and dilapidated houses in the province.
