The Journey of Overcoming Hardship: The Story of Ms. Nguyễn Thị Châu Vị's Family

13/01/2025 Views: 509

Ms. Nguyễn Thị Châu Vị, living in Hamlet 3, Đức Hạnh Commune, Đức Linh District, Bình Thuận Province, faces immense difficulties. Her family has no farmland, and her husband is bedridden due to a stroke, fully dependent on her and their children for daily care.

Adding to her challenges, Ms. Vị suffers from a tumor condition that has severely weakened her health. Unable to do heavy work, her income relies on social assistance and neighborly support, which is far from sufficient to cover daily expenses, medical bills, and school fees for her two children.

Understanding her family's dire situation, the Thiện Chí Center extended a helping hand by assisting her in building a greenhouse vegetable garden to grow clean produce and earn additional income. Initially, Ms. Vị struggled due to a lack of experience and unfavorable weather, which affected crop yields.

However, with persistence and guidance from the center’s staff, she gradually mastered the techniques of growing clean vegetables. Over time, her garden began to bear fruit, generating a monthly income of 600,000 to 800,000 VND from vegetable sales. While modest, this income has helped alleviate some of the financial burden on her shoulders.

Beyond the material benefits, the support from the Thiện Chí Center has reignited Ms. Vị’s hope and determination to overcome adversity and build a better future for her family. The joy and gratitude in her and her children's eyes reflect the positive changes brought about by compassion and solidarity.

Ms. Nguyễn Thị Châu Vị's story is not only a testament to resilience but also a reminder of the strength of community unity. When people come together, simple yet meaningful miracles can blossom, bringing faith and hope to lives that once seemed destined for despair.

In Vietnam, raising pigs in residential areas is not completely prohibited, but it is strictly regulated and subject to specific legal limitations. Especially in urban areas, densely populated neighborhoods, or land designated for urban housing, pig farming is often banned or discouraged due to its potential negative impacts on the living environment. Common concerns include unpleasant odors, noise, sanitation issues, and the risk of disease outbreaks. During the dry season, water shortages further complicate hygiene and livestock care.
