Safe, Permanent Home for Widow and Young Daughter
In the South Mo Cay district, Bến Tre province, Mrs. Pham Thanh Tuyen and her daughter were living in temporary housing as she struggled to sell lottery tickets and do odd jobs to support the family. Mrs. Pham Thanh Tuyen is a widow, and her daily income of less than 100,000VNĐ was not enough to support the family, so she took out a 50,000,000VNĐ loan from a local committee to raise livestock and cover her daughter’s school fees.
Kids Promise learned of Mrs. Pham Thanh Tuyen’s struggles and has presented her and her daughter with a new home. The ceremony was attended by government officials and the family’s relatives. Through tears of happiness, Mrs. Pham Thanh Tuyen thanked Kids Promise and said she would no longer have to worry about rain leaking through the roof or the fact that her daughter didn’t have a table or chair to do school work. She is committed to improving their lives.
