Lighting up dreams for workers
Ms. Pham Thi Be Tien - a sewing worker at Tuy Phong Garment Enterprise 38, Lien Huong Commune, Lam Dong Province) - shared that she always feels the care and help of the union and colleagues as relatives in the family.
Having worked at the factory for more than 7 years, during a recent health check-up, Ms. Tien was diagnosed with breast cancer. "At that time, I was completely devastated and disoriented. Thanks to the union cadres and the workers' encouragement and help, I was able to overcome it," she said emotionally.
The grassroots union called on union members to donate and support her with more than 76 million VND for treatment. Thanks to this source of spiritual and material encouragement, Ms. Tien has overcome 2 radiotherapy sessions, returned to work and prepared for further treatment.
I am very grateful to my brothers, sisters, and colleagues who have supported me during difficult times. I hope to get well soon so I can continue to work, meet and share with colleagues every day, she said.

Understanding that situation, the grassroots union mobilized union members to donate 50 million VND, giving her support to complete a house worth more than 70 million VND.
"I don't even think I can have a house to protect me and my mother from the sun even though I'm dreaming. Now, when my dream comes true, I am truly moved and happy, Thao expressed.
