Thien Chi Center for Community Support and Development

Thien Chi programs

Microcredit

Our target beneficiaries are vulnerable communities and poor families having low income (under 1$/person/month), in need of capital to improve their household income. Unfortunately, they are unable to access government bank loans cause of the bank’s criteria.
We provide small credits (100$-250$) for beneficiaries, then we provide training on the knowledge related to their loan's models and monthly follow up them to ensure the loan’s success. After 6 months, we will recollect the loan. We measure its impact, then make a decision on granting another loan.

Education & Health

In rural areas, the knowledge related to emerging social issues such as health, environment or the rights of women is very limited. Children and students also lack of knowledge about dental health, sexual abuse, etc. Besides that, many poor families can not support their children going to school because of the school fees. This leads to a poor future for these children, and the inability for the families to escape the cycle of poverty.
Thien Chi programs are focusing on the schools and communities:
- In schools: thousands of scholarships are provided every year in 3 project sites
- In the communities: Thien Chi provides training for health, environments, women’s rights, etc.

Ms. Nguyễn Thị Trí’s family resides in Đức Linh district. Previously classified as a near-poor household with financial difficulties, they joined a microloan program in March 2022. The family consists of four members: the couple and their two school-aged children. Without any farmland of their own, they had to rent land to grow corn and lived in a temporary shelter next to her mother-in-law's house in Hamlet 1A. Aside from working on the rented fields, both husband and wife would take on any hired work they could find, but the jobs were unstable, resulting in an average income of only 875,000 VND per person per month.
