The work of mobilizing social resources has been deployed by the Front at all levels since the first days of implementing the Resolution of the Front Congress. Accordingly, the work of perfecting the Mobilization Committee; amending and supplementing the Regulations on the operation of the Mobilization Committee; organizing information and propaganda of the province's implementation documents, Appeal Letters and mobilization plans to agencies, units, enterprises, organizations, individuals, philanthropists and all classes of people to call for joint contributions of funds, goods, and support in many other forms to contribute to the successful implementation of the goal of eliminating temporary and dilapidated houses in the province by 2025.

Responding to the Appeal Letter of the Provincial Party Secretary, the Fatherland Front at all levels and member organizations actively implemented the emulation movement "Join hands to eliminate temporary and dilapidated houses in the province in the period of 2023 - 2025". The work of mobilizing resources was flexibly implemented by the district-level Fatherland Front in many forms (organizing launching ceremonies, through the Association of Fellow Countrymen to mobilize children far from home to support, establishing working groups to mobilize funds in the provinces...). Up to now, the result of mobilizing funds to eliminate temporary houses at the district level is over 16.7 billion VND. Some units mobilized quite high. Nam Giang district (over 2.3 billion VND), Dien Ban town (nearly 1.8 billion), Dai Loc district (over 1.2 billion VND), Phuoc Son district (over 1 billion VND)....

The Commune Front also flexibly mobilized the people through mobilizing small traders and businesses to directly support local house building subjects. Typically, the family of Ms. Nguyen Thi Huynh, village 1, Tra Mai commune, Nam Tra My district donated 120 million VND; Ms. Huynh Thi Tuyen, Kham Duc town, Phuoc Son district donated 180 million VND; Phan Ngoc Anh Construction Materials Company Limited (Duy Xuyen) donated bricks to build houses....

For the Provincial Front, the spirit of urgency, acceleration, proactive connection, and mobilizing support resources from the Central Government, other provinces, and benefactors inside and outside the province to mobilize resources is a regular task. In addition, the monitoring, updating, reviewing, listing, and urging and reminding of supporting agencies, units, organizations, and individuals are carried out with attention.

To date, the total amount of money raised and registered for donation has reached over 144 billion VND. The Quang Nam Association in Lam Dong and Binh Phuoc provinces; the Provincial Military Command and the Provincial Police are the units that have contributed the most to the fund. In addition, businesses have also actively contributed, such as KN Holdings Group (45 billion VND), Truong Hai Group Joint Stock Company (15 billion VND), Military Commercial Joint Stock Bank and Dat Phuong Group Joint Stock Company (10 billion VND each); Quang Nam Petroleum Company (5 billion VND...)

Not only mobilizing financial support, the Fatherland Front at all levels coordinated with the government and mass organizations to mobilize people to support working days in dismantling old houses, digging foundations, transporting materials, installing electricity, water systems... including contributing funds to directly support households. To date, the whole province has completed 5,644/11,761 houses (47.9%).

It can be said that the campaign results are the resonance of the sense of responsibility of the campaigning agency, the enthusiastic participation and support of agencies, units, organizations and enterprises in propagating and mobilizing civil servants and workers to share the message "millions of loving hearts - thousands of happy homes".

Timely monitoring and proposing solutions to problems at the facility

In addition to mobilizing to ensure basic resources to support housing construction, from the beginning of 2025, the Provincial Front has focused on innovating the coordination method between the Provincial Vietnam Fatherland Front Committee and the Vietnam Fatherland Front Committees at district and commune levels in synthesizing, monitoring, and grasping the allocation and results of using funds to eliminate temporary and dilapidated houses in the province.

The breakthrough of the Front in implementing the task of eliminating temporary houses is the coordination of supervision, timely recommendations for handling arising problems. Accordingly, the provincial Front has established direct supervision teams in Nam Tra My, Bac Tra My, Phu Ninh and Duy Xuyen districts. At the same time, it conducted field surveys at households that have built and are building houses, working directly with the steering committees of communes with selected subjects. Thereby, it discovered difficulties and shortcomings in the coordination, review and appraisal of subjects; disbursement and implementation results at the local level are still slow, and funding sources are still stagnant at the district level. The implementation of housing construction in mountainous areas is facing difficulties due to terrain, weather conditions, high labor and material costs, and households do not have enough conditions to match the funding; in addition, customs such as age-checking, choosing a date to build a house... affect the progress of implementation. Some households still have the mentality of waiting and relying on the support of the State...

After monitoring, the Provincial Front proposed that the Provincial Steering Committee continue to direct support for workers in mountainous districts; direct district and commune Party Committees to be more resolute and focused on the work of eliminating temporary and dilapidated houses for households in the area that have been approved on the list, not to be passive after the district-level organization no longer exists. At the same time, it is recommended that the Provincial People's Committee promptly issue regulations on lending from local budget capital entrusted through the provincial social policy bank so that poor districts can promptly implement it, creating favorable conditions for subjects to balance additional capital sources to build new and repair houses to ensure safety.
