Nguyen Trong An's family currently resides in group 5, village 1, Duc Hanh commune, Duc Linh district, Binh Thuan province. An's family is a poor local household. The family has 6 members including: grandmother, parents, An, younger sister and younger brother.
An's mother cannot work, so she stays at home and takes care of her two children and blind grandmother. All economic burdens fell on An's father's shoulders. The family has 2 acres of rice fields a year and can grow more than 3 tons of rice a year. After deducting the cost of fertilizers, they still have a surplus of more than 6,000,000/year. An's father worked for others, doing whatever they asked him to do, earning about 220,000/day. But the job is unstable, sometimes not. The family's expenses are short first and then short. The average income of a family of 6 members is 870,000/person/month.
We and our family hope that sponsors from near and far can help An with a scholarship of 300,000 VND/month to give An peace of mind to continue on his path to school, and also reduce his burden for parents.
