What Thien Chi Center does
Thien Chi Center is a Vietnamese social organization that works with poor rural communities in Binh Thuan (Ham Thuan Nam, Tanh Linh and Duc Linh districts), giving priority to women and children. Many low-income households in our project areas need money to start or grow a small business, but cannot qualify for a bank loan.
We provide small loans of 2–5 million VND, followed by practical training in farming and livestock. Our staff visit each household every month to help the business succeed. After six months, once the family is earning from it, the loan is repaid and lent again to the next family.
Through the project "Economic development for poor rural women through capital, capacity building and access to healthcare (2025–2028)", funded by the Organisation Internationale de la Francophonie (OIF), we also train women to strengthen their skills and improve their family's health.
