On the occasion of the upcoming War Invalids and Martyrs’ Day (July 27), Vice President Nguyen Thi Doan offered nearly 200 gifts to contributors to the national revolution on July 12 in northern provinces of Nam Dinh and Ninh Binh.
The beneficiaries include heroic mothers, wounded ex-servicemen, war veterans, war invalids and relatives of martyrs from My Loc district, Nam Dinh province and from Yen Mo district, Ninh Binh province.
Speaking at the ceremonies, Vice President Doan hailed their contributions and urged localities to pay more attention to families and individuals benefitting from social welfare policies and ensure no one slips through the cracks.
Also in the same day, she presented 200 scholarships to children of servicemen stationed on islands and border areas and impoverished students as part of the “Together to School”, co-funded by the National Fund for Vietnamese Children (NFVC).
The programme has come to 61 cities and provinces, benefiting underprivileged kids with over 22 billion VND since its launch in 2012.
