In addition to providing loans to develop the economy, Thien Chi also carries out programs to improve community awareness through training:

Awareness about several common diseases: Breast cancer, respiratory diseases, seasonal diseases... This program gathers more than 500 participants per year and has a greater impact as the knowledge is passed on among the communities.

Women Rights: The goal of this program is to make the women's voices heard in their family. Through Legal Aid sessions, Women's Right community training help more than 300 women each year. It is difficult to change mentalities in places where the role of men and women has been clear for decades, but it starts with giving women tools to exist.

Medical support: One of the straightest ways to contribute is to cover the medical fees of a family or even their health insurance. The costs are usually way too high for the families and Thien Chi can step in, so does the government.

Tăng Hùng An, born in 2003, and his twin brother Tăng Hùng Nam, also born in 2003, reside in Thôn 1B, Trà Tân Commune, Đức Linh District, Bình Thuận Province. Both brothers faced difficulties with language and learning. An's mother used to worry that her son would remain slow-witted, which caused her great concern. With the desire to help her children develop, she sought assistance from the Thiện Chí Center. In 2014, Thiện Chí visited the family, assessed the situation, and intervened to support both brothers. The initial phase was extremely challenging. Due to short-term memory issues, An would forget what he had learned quickly, but with perseverance from both Thiện Chí and the children, progress was made, one letter at a time. An studied from grade 3 until grade 6, at which point he stopped. By grade 6, An could read, write, and do math proficiently, and Thiện Chí evaluated that he had reached the necessary educational level to graduate from the program.
