The mark of Hoang Su Phi youth in social security work

BHG - Hoang Su Phi District Youth Union currently has 28 Youth Union bases, 8 affiliated Youth Union branches with over 1,800 Youth Union members. In recent years, affirming the pioneering role of the youth, the Youth Union chapters at all levels in the district have implemented many meaningful community volunteer movements that have contributed to ensuring social security in the locality.

The most practical work in social security is that Hoang Su Phi District Youth Union coordinates with local Party committees and authorities to join hands in implementing the movement to eliminate temporary and dilapidated houses in the area. Up to now, the whole district has started to build 207 new houses for the poor, of which the District Youth Union is directly responsible for supporting the construction of 7 houses. To carry out this task, Youth Union chapters at all levels have established 28 "Youth volunteer groups to eliminate temporary and dilapidated houses" in 24 communes and towns. With the participation of 568 Youth Union members, the groups have contributed more than 1,400 working days, actively supporting households to dismantle old houses, transport materials, dig foundations, level floors, roof, paint walls to complete new houses. The enthusiastic and responsible support of the Youth Union members not only helps households reduce construction costs but also speeds up the progress, soon stabilizing their lives.

Hoang Su Phi District Youth Union started to build a road in Lung Pac, San Sa Ho commune.

The family of Mr. Ly Trong Kinh, Ta Chai village, Ban May commune is a poor household with especially difficult circumstances that is under the responsibility of the District Youth Union. In addition to lacking land for production, the whole family used to live in a dilapidated, leaky house that was at risk of collapsing during the rainy season. Thanks to the attention of the local government and the help of the Youth Union members in the form of working days, the family's new sturdy house was soon completed. Mr. Kinh emotionally shared: "Thank you to the Party, the authorities at all levels and the Youth Union members for helping my family rebuild a new house to have a safe place to live. This is a great source of encouragement that helps us overcome difficulties, stabilize our livelihoods, and strive to escape poverty."

From 2024 to present, Hoang Su Phi District Youth Union has proactively and creatively organized volunteer programs to arouse the vanguard spirit of young union members in social security work. Many youth projects and tasks have been implemented such as: "Volunteering to build new rural areas and Green Sunday"; organizing the peak period of "Youth Month"; "Winter Volunteer"; "Spring Volunteer"; "Volunteer Saturday Campaign"; "March Border Month". With the motto "for everyone, living usefully for yourself, your family and society", the Youth Unions of communes and towns have also mobilized to help people build barns, renovate mixed gardens, make fences, clean up the environment... with thousands of young union members participating. Especially when natural disasters occur, the Standing Committee of the District Youth Union directs grassroots Youth Unions to establish "Youth Volunteer Shock Teams" to coordinate with functional forces to quickly overcome the consequences. The teams supported house repairs, cleared fallen trees, and cleaned up the environment in villages and hamlets of 24 communes and towns and several schools in the district.

One of the outstanding activities in the social security work of Hoang Su Phi youth is to mobilize charitable organizations to build a concrete bridge in Giang Ha village, Thong Nguyen commune, where nearly 100 Dao ethnic households live. Previously, people had to cross a dry stream, which posed a risk of accidents and was almost isolated during heavy rains. Started in January 2025, the 9m long, 1.5m wide concrete bridge with a total cost of 350 million VND was completed and put into use, helping people travel easily, creating conditions for economic development and trade of goods.

Hoang Su Phi District Youth Union has coordinated with volunteer units and philanthropists to help single-parent families and those with revolutionary contributions; give gifts to people with disabilities and victims of Agent Orange; donate clothes, books and school supplies to students in the area. In 2024, it organized the construction of concrete roads in Ta Chai village 4, Tung San commune; planted 3,000 Sa Moc trees in Vinh Quang town; coordinated with the Youth Union of Central agencies to donate border lighting projects and border trees in Ban May commune; connected with the Youth Union of Dong La B Kindergarten, Dong La Commune Police, Hoai Duc District (Hanoi city) to donate stainless steel water tanks, water filters, uniforms to students of Then Chu Phin Kindergarten, Primary School, Po Lo Kindergarten... The total cost of the programs is 435 million VND.

Comrade Lu Tuan Thanh, Deputy Secretary of the Hoang Su Phi District Youth Union, said: “The volunteer activities in social security work in recent times have been a highlight of the Youth Union's work. Those practical actions affirm the role and responsibility of the Youth Union members in the district towards the community. In the coming time, the Youth Union at all levels will focus on mobilizing social resources from Youth Union bases and volunteer clubs to spread volunteer activities for social security more strongly. At the same time, linking community activities with patriotic emulation movements among the Youth Union members will contribute to promoting the youth's strength to build the homeland."
