The house that started construction this time belongs to Ms. Nguyen Thi Nghi, residing in Nam Giang hamlet, Dong Thanh commune.

Mrs. Nghi, 76 years old this year, is the character in the article The tragic family situation of a 76-year-old woman raising 3 mentally ill and paralyzed children.

Mrs. Nghi is a poor household with extremely difficult circumstances. Of her 7 children, she has lost 2, the remaining 3 suffer from mental illness and severe disabilities. In her old age, she still hunts crabs and snails every day to feed her children affected by Agent Orange. Due to her extremely difficult circumstances, she does not have the means to repair or upgrade her seriously degraded house.

After the article was published, Ms. Nghi's family received much attention from local authorities at all levels and support from philanthropists and benefactors.

The level 4 house of gratitude is expected to be completed after more than 2 months from the start date. In addition to the financial support, villagers and neighbors will also contribute to work such as construction and bricklaying to help the family build the new house.

Supporting the construction of a charity house not only helps Ms. Nghi have a stable place to live, but is also a great source of encouragement, giving her and her family more strength to overcome difficulties and gradually stabilize their lives.
