Ea Drơng commune (Cư M'gar district) has 3,124 households with over 14,400 inhabitants, of which 72% are indigenous ethnic minorities. The lives of the people mainly depend on agricultural production, so they still face many difficulties.
In implementing Directive 05-CT/TW of the Politburo on "Promoting the study and emulation of Ho Chi Minh's thought, morality, and style," over the past years, the commune has promoted the "piggy bank savings" movement to mobilize capital to help poor households and those with difficult circumstances to improve their lives.
From 2017 to the present, Ea Drơng commune has mobilized the raising of 952 piggy banks, accumulating over 444 million VND in savings. This has supported 44 poor and near-poor households in implementing livestock and crop development models, with 8 households achieving sustainable poverty alleviation.

The family of Mr. Y Hen Niê (Yông B village) previously faced extremely difficult circumstances. He lacked stable employment, and all living expenses and the cost of raising and educating his three children depended primarily on his meager wages from odd jobs. In 2017, his family received support from the district to build a "Great Solidarity" house, and a year later, the Vietnam Fatherland Front Committee of Ea Drơng commune allocated 6 million VND from its "piggy bank" fund to help them purchase a breeding cow. Through diligent care, Mr. Y Hen Niê's family has now expanded their herd to 5 cows. By the end of 2022, his family was removed from the list of impoverished households. Mr. Y Hen Niê shared: “Previously, my family's economic situation was very difficult and challenging; we were classified as a poor household in the commune. Thanks to the capital support from the piggy bank model, my family has had the funds to raise livestock. My wife and I also actively work on the fields, tend to the coffee plants, and do odd jobs in our free time. As a result, my family has escaped poverty, and our lives are becoming more stable.”
Similarly, the family of Ms. H Blip Niê in Yông village also recently escaped poverty thanks to financial support from the commune's "piggy bank" fund. Previously, due to a lack of land for farming, Ms. H and her husband had to work as laborers to make ends meet and support their children's education. At the end of 2017, her family received 6 million VND from the Vietnam Fatherland Front Committee of Ea Drơng commune's "piggy bank" fund. With this, she bought three female goats to raise. With good care, the family's goat herd grew quickly, and she sold some goats to generate income. Currently, her family has nine goats, including two breeding mothers. With accumulated capital and additional loans, her family has been able to buy 7 sao (approximately 0.7 hectares) of land to plant coffee. Her family's economic situation has gradually improved and is steadily rising.
