Promoting the spirit of mutual love, in recent years, the Women's Union at all levels of Phu Ninh district has actively promoted activities and mobilized resources to effectively care for the material and spiritual lives of members and women, especially members and women in difficult circumstances, actively contributing to social security work in the area.
Thanks to the Women's Union's loan support, Trinh Thi Ninh's family has invested in expanding the grapefruit growing area, earning over 100 million VND each year.
The District Women's Union currently has over 20,000 members. In order to effectively support members, poor women, and women in difficult circumstances, the District Women's Union has directed the local Women's Unions to review and grasp the number of poor women, single women, and poor households headed by women in the area; regularly grasp the thoughts and aspirations of members to promptly provide appropriate assistance and support measures. For members, women who are still able to work and want to develop the economy, the Union creates conditions for members to access preferential loans, support livelihoods in the forms of capital support, plants, and seeds to develop production, mobilize women's savings groups to lend at low interest rates or no interest, etc.
As one of the members who received favorable conditions from the Women's Union at all levels to access loans from the Social Policy Bank, Ms. Trinh Thi Ninh, Zone 9, Phu Loc Commune, was able to borrow 20 million VND to grow grapefruit. Ms. Ninh said: "With the support of the Women's Union, my family has had more capital to invest, expand the area, and plant more than 300 grapefruit trees, earning about 100 million VND each year. Thanks to that, the family's economy has gradually improved, and the quality of life has been increasingly enhanced."
Currently, the District Women's Union is well managing capital from the Social Policy Bank with a total outstanding loan of over VND 98 billion for 2,138 households; the fund to support poor women in Phu Ninh commune with an outstanding loan of over VND 1.2 billion for 123 households to borrow for economic development; the TYM fund with an outstanding loan of over VND 15 billion for 1,275 households to borrow for livestock development, service business, and increase family income...
Not only paying attention to supporting members and women in economic development, the work of caring for the lives, health and spirit of members is also focused on by the Women's Union at all levels in the district. In order to create conditions for members and women with difficult housing circumstances to build solid homes, the District Women's Union has directed the grassroots Unions to actively and effectively implement the Campaign to build "Homes of Love" for poor women, women with disabilities, single women, and women in especially difficult circumstances.
A typical example is the family of member Nghiem Thi Tinh in Tram Than commune, who is in particularly difficult circumstances. Her previous house was dilapidated. Her husband died early, leaving her alone to raise two children, so life was very difficult. In 2016, understanding the family's circumstances and wishes, the district Women's Union at all levels supported 30 million VND from the "Shelter of Love" fund to build a new house. From 2020 to now, the district Women's Union has mobilized support to build and repair 7 "Shelters of Love" with a total value of more than 270 million VND.
By implementing practical and meaningful activities, the activities to support women, especially members and women in difficult circumstances of the Women's Union at all levels of Phu Ninh district have demonstrated the role of the Union and each female cadre and member in joining hands to help the disadvantaged in society. From there, it helps members and women to stabilize their lives, work and produce with peace of mind.
