Vinh Long - The Great Unity House was donated at the right time, giving a poor household in Tra On more motivation to overcome difficulties and feel secure in their lives.

On June 10, the People's Committee of Tra On district coordinated with Thien Phuoc Pagoda (Area 5, Tra On town) to organize the handover ceremony of the Great Unity house to the family of Mr. Nguyen Van Ut, born in 1977, a poor household, facing housing difficulties in My Loi Hamlet, Tra On town, Tra On district.

The house was solidly built with a total area of 40m2, with a construction cost of 64 million VND. Of which, Binh Minh - Thien Phuoc Fund (Tien Phuoc Pagoda, Zone 5, Tra On Town) supported 60 million VND, the rest was contributed by the family to complete the new house.

This is a great source of encouragement, helping Mr. Ut's family have a stable place to live, work with peace of mind, and gradually escape poverty.

Mr. Nguyen Van Ut said that before, his house was in disrepair and leaking in all four sides. "Now that I have a solid house like this, I am so happy to lose sleep. From now on, my family has a decent place to live to work with peace of mind and improve our lives, Mr. Ut emotionally shared.
