In the joyful atmosphere of celebrating Vesak PL. 2570 - DL. 2026 and the 136th anniversary of President Ho Chi Minh's birth (1890 - 2026) taking place throughout the country, the Executive Board of the Vietnam Buddhist Sangha (GHPGVN) of Dong Nai City has coordinated with local authorities to organize a program to visit, express gratitude and give gifts to Vietnamese Heroic Mothers in the Northern area of Dong Nai City.
This is an activity with profound humanistic meaning, expressing the spirit of "Gratitude and Repayment" of Buddhist children, and at the same time contributing to promoting the tradition of "Drinking water, remembering the source", "Gratitude" of the Vietnamese nation towards mothers who silently sacrificed their youth and family happiness for the independence and freedom of the Fatherland.
The delegation was led by Nun Thich Nu Can Lien on behalf of the Standing Board of Directors of GHPGVN Dong Nai City as the delegation leader; accompanied by Nun Thich Nu Nhu Hieu, monks, nuns, members of Tam Hoa Zen Buddhism Club Ngoc Binh and a large number of Buddhists attending.
According to records, currently in the northern area of Dong Nai City, there are still 9 Vietnamese Heroic Mothers living in localities. In each place the delegation visited, monks and nuns and members of the delegation respectfully inquired about their health, kindly encouraged their spirit and expressed deep gratitude for the great sacrifices of the Mothers in the cause of national liberation and defense of their homeland.
In emotion and warm affection, the delegation presented each Mother with a gift worth 2,500,000 VND, including a gift basket of necessities worth 500,000 VND and a cash envelope of 20,000 VND. The total cost of implementing the program is 22,500,000 VND.
These gifts, although not of great material value, contain the full sincerity, gratitude and sharing of monks and nuns and Buddhists of the Board of Trustees of GHPGVN Dong Nai City sent to Mothers during the sacred Buddha's Birthday season. Thereby, contributing to spreading the spirit of compassion and enlightenment of Vietnamese Buddhism, always accompanying the nation on every historical journey.
