Mr. Nguyen Tat Thang, Chairman of the Board of Directors of T&T Group (middle) presented Dien Bien province with 5 billion VND (100 houses) and presented symbolic keys to the family receiving support to build the house.
Dien Bien is a mountainous province, the northwestern border of the country, with a strategic position in terms of national defense and security, with nearly 500 km of border adjacent to Laos and China; the total population of the province is more than 640,000 people, with 19 ethnic groups living together (of which ethnic minorities account for over 80%). In recent years, with the attention of the Party, the State, ministries and central branches, the province's socio-economy has developed, and people's lives have been improved. However, Dien Bien is still a poor province, with a poverty rate of 25.68%. According to the review data, as of March 31, 2023, in the province there are more than 7,000 policy households, poor households, and near-poor households living in temporary houses, dilapidated houses, and damaged houses in need of support for renovation and repair. Based on that reality, the Standing Committee of the Central Committee of the Vietnam Fatherland Front coordinated with Dien Bien province and relevant agencies to implement the Project to mobilize support for building solidarity houses for poor households in Dien Bien province, towards the 70th anniversary of Dien Bien Phu victory (May 7, 1954 - May 7, 2024). The representative of T&T Group said: "We are honored to participate in the project, accompanying Dien Bien province to make a small contribution to help local households live in solid, safe houses that meet their needs. We hope that this support will be a source of encouragement and a foundation to help families continue to rise in life, determined to escape poverty sustainably" .
From support resources, poor and near-poor households in Dien Bien province have been able to live in solid and safe houses.
From the support of sponsors and philanthropists, including T&T Group; as well as the participation of the entire local political system, up to now, thousands of Great Unity houses in Dien Bien province have been newly built and handed over to the people. According to the data of the Vietnam Fatherland Front Committee of Dien Bien province, after 9 months of implementing and organizing the Great Unity House program, 5,000 new houses have been completed and handed over to the people for use. Of which, 1,818 are built houses, 1,894 are traditional wooden houses, 1,288 are steel frame houses. The total cost of building the houses is over 489 billion VND. Of which, the Great Unity House program supports 250 billion VND; households contribute 166.2 billion VND in cash; households prepare materials themselves, worth over 56.2 billion VND; mobilized labor days, equivalent to over 17 billion VND. Previously, in March 2022, the family of businessman Do Quang Hien - Founder, Chairman of the Strategy Committee of T&T Group, along with businesses in the ecosystem, also donated 20 billion VND to Dien Bien province to help eliminate temporary houses for poor people in the province. In addition to Dien Bien province, T&T Group also spent a large amount of money to support the construction of gratitude houses and solidarity houses for the poor and people with revolutionary contributions in many other localities such as Ha Giang, Cao Bang, Dak Lak, etc. As a leading multi-industry private economic group in Vietnam, in addition to business development, T&T Group always upholds its responsibility to the community and society and upholds the philosophy of "business development associated with social responsibility". Every year, T&T Group spends hundreds of billions of VND to support and help alleviate difficulties for the poor and people affected by natural disasters; provide large financial support to build schools, award scholarships to poor students; support Vietnamese Heroic Mothers; renovate and embellish cultural and historical works across the country...
