To complete the tasks in the coming time, the Vice President asked the members to promote their sense of responsibility, helping the BTBT Council operate more effectively and practically. The Ministry of Labor, Invalids and Social Affairs needs to orient and direct the BTTEVN Fund to innovate the content, methods of operation, support methods, and mobilize the strength of the whole society to join hands to support children in especially difficult circumstances. The Ministry of Labor, Invalids and Social Affairs and the Ministry of Finance remove obstacles for the BTTE Fund system in issuing documents to unify the organizational model of the BTTE Fund at all levels and sectors as a basis for issuing Circulars guiding the management and use of the Fund.

The Chairman of the Council of Ministers assigned the BTTEVN Fund the following upcoming tasks: Coordinate with the Office of the President to advise and carefully organize the ceremony to honor sponsors at the Presidential Palace; Organize the 17th live TV program "Spring for Children"; Organize care for children in especially difficult circumstances on the occasion of Tet Giap Thin 2024; Strive to mobilize 110 billion VND and support 110,000 children in 2024.

The BTTEVN Fund is the standing body of the Council of Ministers and needs to continue to promote its advisory role to connect the members of the Council through specific activities. Research and propose adding members who are reputable domestic and foreign enterprises to participate in the Council. Continue to review the organizational structure towards streamlining and efficiency. Continue to promote propaganda work along with commendation, reward, and replication of examples, typically philanthropists, organizations, and sponsors who have actively cared for and supported children.

The Vietnam Children's Fund accepts the contributions and directions of the Sponsoring Council, and commits to providing support to the right subjects, for the right purposes, and with high efficiency. At the same time, we hope that in the coming time, the members of the Sponsoring Council will continue to actively participate in resource mobilization activities, inspection and supervision work, and events of the Fund.
